Her hair soft hanging
head down in a tired bliss
We'd walked a long way and I had
a sense she'd planned all this
Though her hands carressed now
mine in warm intimacy
It was strange to feel a smile
so new so close to me
The place is known
all faces are familiar
Her effort's clear
the timing's right
I'm here and so is her
Still a thin thought bubbled
'neath the warmth
of this fresh noose
It's a mere 3 days
since we've been
formally introduced
God a kid
But I was even then
The template of the man I'd be
A growing seed
Of uneasy awe
Towards the things I saw as me
He built their house
they're married now
they attend mass
He's a science boy
he used to burn things
with his magnifying glass
I see him still
I know he knows
it's in his eyes
We never talk now
we simply get on with our lives
We was mentioned then
a zealous friend
in your abetting words
We rightly sad our innocence
but it just felt worse
Your love grew deep for me the
shallower mine for you
And to this day I don't know
quite what I was supposed to do
God a kid
I am even now
Never grew somehow to be
The blossomed seed
Of calm and wise repose
Daily craved by those who've
come to love me
