You dreamed of seeing me up there,
Alas, I never made it;
I moved beyond, to other things,
And your hopes slowly faded
Oh yes, you had so many plans
For this fly in the ointment:
I was a minor talent, but
A major disappointment

Enemy’s Border
He loved her with a desperate hope
That made of him a mess —
He looked for every little sign;
She could not have cared less.
His dreams beset him in the night,
He’d win, whate’er the cost:
He told her how their life would go,
She told him to
Get lost
To share is human:
Where Is The Life?
Where is the life she’s meant to know?
She cannot say why it is so,
But she is lost inside her thoughts;
Her spirit tangled up in knots.
The bright girl of whom such great things
Were said and thought in days gone by;
Now sits and wishes she had wings
To leave all this and reach the sky —
For all she has are questions now:
Where is her place? What is her role?
Where is the life she’s meant to know?
Whatever happened to
Her soul?
To share is human:
she loves you, but…
she loves you, but
she cannot be your lover:
she gave her heart,
and she can give no other
the book is so much more
than just the cover —
she loves you, but
she cannot be
your lover
To share is human:
The Lover’s Progress
At twelve, she wanted everyone to love her.
At eighteen, only family or friend;
At twenty-three, just one to love and hold her,
At thirty-eight, she’d settle for
Pretend
