Abandonment
11.28.98

My face does burn
where tears of flame do flow
scarred so badly
from the inner soul
don't know where to hide
or where to go
hiding your abandonment in my heart
which meant so much to me
because you're part
of my life a large slice you do take
I wait and wait from sun into the stars
but never do I feel a rest
from this never-ending feeling of aloneness.
You do make for me through my eyes
You make my light, made me stride
for this time of nothingness.
There is no time of rest for me
I must stay awake
for you could appear and be gone
in two beats of my heart
And the wounds on my feet from
pacing, waiting, wanting
only you
in my heart, in my arms
you should be,
but apparently I am so undeserving
for my arms are cold
and my lips so dry
longing for the 'plenishment
you bestow to me
in my fantasy.
I wanted you to love me like I do
'tis not possible for you
now you are gone
you passed myself by
gone into a field
with my still alone in the brush
I just sit and cry
in the dewey moss
in wonderment of what I never had,
but lost.
