Last Charge of the Light Horse - Choose Now

No tricks, no riddles couched in poetry
Just look me in the eye and say it plainly
It takes a charlatan to disappear in a puff of smoke
It takes a lifetime to remain as the scenario
Plays out its final complications
Our bodies overlaid with the filigree of age
I’m done balancing the ache of longing
And the fear of wondering if you’ll stay, so
Choose now
Choose now
I’m done with waiting
Choose now
No brandishing your jagged shards of wit to intimidate
No soft and clever words to hide the truth
You’ve always been playful
But the time for games is through
Your love’s like handcuffs and bruises
I can’t free myself or draw a breath without pain
But I won’t be a prisoner
Of wondering our fate
Choose now
Choose now
I’m done with waiting
Choose now
Choose now
Choose now
I’m done with waiting
Choose now
Choose now
Choose now
I’m done with waiting
