To Leave

I do know at least this much – I don't want to leave –
But time bends under everything else I think I believe.
The thought of you makes me manic, impatient;
The presence seems to nail me wherever I'm stationed.
I want to assert my own physical presence,
To hold you close against me so you can't escape it,
But forever...I'd grow restless without steps, without rhyme,
and I know that besides that, I don't have the time.
