Written Piece: Voicemail

This piece can be found of my old xanga page. But I decided to repost this. I'm planning on posting a lot more of my pieces in the near future. Hope you enjoy.

I wrote this piece back in the day thinking about missed opportunities and dwelling on it too much. Pretty much if you think about it too much, you lose it. Don't think about these situations too hard. just do it.

Please keep in mind that these are spoken word pieces. So if you want to feel the true essance of the piece, you would have to see it performed.

This is it man, the opportunity of a lifetime.
Are you just gonna sit here and let your dream girl pass by?
The message says her flight leaves at nine.
She'll be waiting at Gate G if you wanna come and say hi.
Now I know you've been peepin her since the day you met.
and if you don't tell her now, you will have nothing but regrets.
So stop sitting on that couch trying to think.
Because she will disappear the moment you blink.

Now I know your actin like usher cause you got it bad.
But your blind cause you can't see the opportunity you have.
So she's wondering if you got this next message so she'll make it louder.
Saying she leaves for New York in a couple hours.
Now here's the catch, she wants to tell you something.
And i say you get up and stop doing nothing.

But wait, Hold up, your body hesitates.
Are you gonna be the man to let her forever wait.
This girl is beyond the portrait of a goddess.
Just chillen with her is special and that's being modest.
now picture the moment you tell her how you feel.
All your doing is just keeping it real.
If she deny's you, it wasn't meant to be.
Its better to know that then what could it be.
Ok your driving to the airport, and not a moment too soon.
Because it would of been stupid to stay in your room.
Now step on the gas and meet your destiny.
Find out if it will ever be.

Oh Man, Your not going to believe this.
But this final message will leave you on your fingertips.
She's saying she likes you and all she wants to see you.
Knowing that if you say yes that she will be true.
Now time is against you and the clock is ticking.
You have 3 hours left before she starts leaving.
All she asks is to see her face.
And you can arrive giving her a warm embrace.
Look straight in her eye and sense your heart stop.
And pull a K-Ci and JoJo and catch her teardrop.
Go ahead man, mix a Jerry Mcquire, Can't Hardly Wait, and She's All that mixed into one.
Run through that airport cause your Mission needs to be done.

And the moment she tries and board that plane you look in her straight in her eye.
You say _______________ I love you, Good Bye.
