She was
coach that
held much
change today
with her
sky aloof
and her
draw still
has gallop
and harmony
sweet as
fudge with
striker here
and her
most strident
step in
soccer today.

Where am I?
For, I am-
Amidst the constant
nagging of time.
Co-ordinated neurotic.

Janes come and go,
I can’t let you go Paul.

Eyes, caressed my inner torment.
Words, brushed my perforated heart,

Redness gleamed all over.
Beliefs coalesced, whole.
Stephen's Green, second home.

Eros, Your majesty!

Mine to ours
Bonded than gripped,
Interdiffused
Hearts branched it’s arms.

November rains fey-
Clouds sprinkled poison,
That is life. She said-
“We can never be together, Paul”.

Summoned, lonesome cries.
“Pia!”…… “Pia!”....
The turf loathed away
Unsullied anvil
Thwacked , sightless beams.Chasm.

Janes come and go,
I can’t let you go Paul.

Twinkled when I had my chance,
Roused when needs be thence.
Swarped my sense, ropes hence
Love boots my face,bright future.

New day, new shock.
I breathe bright future-prickles.
Smiled at my 4th wall
deprived of a warm wall.

Janes come and go,
I can’t let you go Paul
Janes come and go
I don think you’re the one, Paul

Shall I bind you with cords of kinship,
Instead of ties of flagrant love?
Shall I catch you with family kindness,
Instead of arrows from above?
Am I a coward,
or a faithful friend,
who longs to keep you to the end,
A fool
a liar
a lover unrequite
dangerously chaining you
to a rose I claim is white?
There is someone who I love very much,  but I can't figure out if I'm falling in love with him romantically or in a sisterly way. I want my family to adopt him, but I don't want to do anything rash or stupid, like prematurely permanently put him in the bro-zone.
