Your poetry describing me

It doesn't come close

You work the handle

You smear and turn

But you come no closer to meaning

It's your vanity

That's...

It's a wonderful world

And you take and you give

And the sun fills the sky

It's a day full of dreams

Your small body clinging tightly to mine
With frightening dependency

Life defining  impossible to betray

I recognise no method of living that I know

I see only the basic materials I may use

If you ask me, I may tell you
It's been this way for years

Messages ran all over town
Words without sound

Condemned me
And left me for dead
All over again

Don't think she realised we knew that,
Not one to make a fuss,
Why this and not something else,
Wasn't it obvious?

What shall we tell them?
A honeymoon brief as a walk in the park
What shall we tell them when they ask?
And they'll ask
Could you not see another way ...
