Hello, Poetry
will you visit me
and share my muse
and my story?

Hello Poetry
I hope you'll not forget me
we've travelled so far together
so delightful has been the journey.

Hello Poetry
You have known my misery
intertwined with my joy
and so intimately kept me company.

Hello Poetry
time has spoken and I'm fading quickly
I long more than ever your consoling words
look not away,  stay, oh do stay with me!

Because of doubt
I live more freely
my life would be static
if lived in certainty

Old dusty letter
in a book long forgotten
memory erupts

Bouquet of regret,
Petals wilt with each footstep,
Vows fade in the breeze.
