Then anger
comes in waves to wash away
the joy
that for a moment had its way
and the
end, as quickly as the start
takes over
as the time comes to depart
And I must
wonder, now aloud
will this
love be smothered in the crowd
as dismal
thought-forms now descend
and I wonder
if we'll still be friends…
or if we
ever were, in truth, this love
that takes
two lives and leaves the feeling of
a great
despair, without the smallest hope
as if ahead
the highest mountain slope
stood in
between the love of you and me
and stopped
the flow of what was meant to be
But then,
what more could I expect
as old
commitments now dissect
the whole
that almost was but now is gone
as the
waking dream of love melts in the sun
My life
has been turned upside down
for what,
I wonder, yet no sound
of understanding
voice would now reply
I walk,
I wonder - now and then, I sigh
as love
collides with wrath to overwhelm
this heart
that longs for love and coming home
