Afternoon, all. Here I am now, again, sitting here. I am thinking, wondering maybe. Dreaming of dark hair and red lips. Satisfied and unsatisfied, finding not that which I’d like to find when I go looking. Please enjoy the poem, friends.
Some Kind of Relationship
Do you think there’s someone out there?
Someone who just knows where?
They’ve found their place and it’s with you.
Just a table set for two.
An aching, tired body,
battered and bruised.
I sleep as soundly as I can,
for only in my sleep do I heal,
for only in my sleep do I not feel.
As heart it twists and stomach it turns
That feeling inside,
that something that burns.
Forget-me-nots come in with the tide.
The onion-hat of sultans sits so sublimely on his head.
A man who now alone rests among the dead.
Like before I’ve said,
all the gold’s been turned to lead.
It usually happens soon after we stop feeling a “need” for it. You’re a good man and I just know that someone will recognize it and treat you like gold.
