Reflect I beg on how I used to swoon
On your sweet words that held me far aloft...
Love
is not...
It was yesterday
when my heart was a sparrow chick...
Waiting for you I grew so old
The light grew dim, my bones got cold...
This is my humanity;
whittled lovingly to a sharp point...
In this moment
as the sun sneaks behind the trees...
Why do you wait for tomorrow?
When you won't even live for today...
For 15 years each time they made love
she’d take hot water and a washcloth...
I close my eyes, the time has come
my life on earth is through...
The Wanderer
In the days before I wandered...
I know where you are tonight
And I'm happy you're moving on...
Like a winters night under the moon,
her beauty almost spectral...
