Today I sat despondently
As I realized you're avoiding me.
Perhaps its that you just suspect
That someone (me) has now unchecked
Your name off people with sad eyes-
I see they're only tired, no sighs
Adorn your heart as delicate strings
Of ivy clinging to a house
That holds regrets of things gone by
And wishes for more time to cry
But no, I understand that you
Are more important to me, it's true:
Merely checking you on a list
Was a silly excuse to dream of wrist
In wrist, a symbol of trust and light
That streaks my thoughts of you each night.

Ode to the one I watch...
