                                                               ­    I thought,


That I was born in this world,

Just to make all people know,




                                         That I just exist,

                      As simple as that.







                                                    ­                                 But I was wrong all along!



                                         'Cause I was born,



For you,

                      And to love you.

Somewhere between sane and insane dwells the lonely poet's soul.

the bar is closing, but she is opening
she is as soft as the night
when she removes all of her clothing
underneath the dim alley light

She removed some clothes
So the hug would
Take.

The innocence was more intimate
Than ***.
Finally held, safe from enemies

On all fronts. I served my time
As a human shield,
If only

For seconds, as sharp claws
Let go and warm, caring hands
Didn't.

I'll be summer sandbox for you.
You be child for a while;
Rest as only kids can;

Lulled and safe, drifting away
To the sound of adults talking
Softly

So you'll sleep, despite the fever.
Warm with sofa, blanket,
And *little.
