How

How long is too long
Too long to wait
Too long to chase
The same problem
From beforehand

Hit my line
And tell me lies
Just like I knew you would

Chastise my anger
But your apologies
They never suffice

How much is too much
Too much to handle
And yet still
Not enough to quit.

Give me simple gestures
Simple pleasures
And expect that I
Curb to your needs

Just like a leech
You feed upon me
Upon this aching need, I have
To have patience.
