I met an enigmatic individual
writing off into the distance.
he waits under oak, bleeding onto paper-
but never for me.
why would he?
share your woes with me,
I am waiting for you-
you, the phantom who never wakes,
who never dreams,
the something in between.
snow melts into spring,
idly waiting under oak,
waiting for the enigmatic individual.

A great write that provokes thought and with whom many can identify. And indeed time passes. Enjoyed the read.

I don't know the song but have enjoyed the read, a relatable write to many, nicely written
Thank you!
You are very welcome
I can feel the hunger intensely. I hope to read more in the future. Best regards.
Thank you!!
I love the line writing off into the distance. This is absolutely gorgeous.
Aww, thanks! I was laughing to myself because it sounded like "riding off into the distance" lol
That's exactly why I like it! Such a clever pun to use in poetry.
