Broken
.
(The promise)
--
The vision from the broken window

Lonely
The strangers in the misted dream that once was clear
--
You DID say that you would
Certainly appear?

(It's how I remember)
--------
there were poets then!
Lovely ladies!
Children born to
Gentleness
---
--

Returning
Thru the pages
Of fairy tales and fantasies
Of remembered embraces
Of solemn vows
And trust

Winds that bore us into poverty
But still
I never thought you would become afraid
--
--
We were young
(I think we are still now!)

We were weak
( we thought it didn't matter!)

And I know
We don't think no different
Somehow
.....

Broken

Shattered the mirror!

I can't see myself
In midst Fate

Broken traces of hopefulness

Yet sill
There were moments of
The most exquisite certainty!

Existing forever
(Not just in memory)
-
Your face!

Your true generosity !

Ragged and broken

But ..........?

We loved and do now
