I read what you wrote, and I knew I had it coming They say that someday the first will be last Nothing goes so nice and orderly My Love Shall Not Crawl Away Not quite like that, my oldest friend Let us talk and kiss once again I have let you down? Imagine me, in the snow, All that hope Yet all the years of expecting nothing Taught me how to listen, how to gird myself Against You ever breaching this fortress Of other potential Assassins But our mothers can't climb this high I'm ready to strike mine if she dared Dead 13 years, but that won't stop me Nothing will, just the thought of you Forget it. I ask you, forget us. If one of us can escape this net Such strange thing without a name I want it I need it I hope it Will be you. ~*~ 2018

sometimes you have to let the poetry go, even if it isn't right at all. . . .
