wish i was the moon
shining down on you each night
sharing silver love
-----
mirror's seen her all
private view body and soul
her seductive dance
-----
bare shoulders for me
smile that smile that offers
me much so much more
-----
when sadness descends
the words will still demand me
to display my heart
-----
to hold you this way
not sex but love's surrender
to our joint desires
-----
you display yourself
flashing flesh you bid me touch
show me your mind first
-----
none's ever loved me
i've lived with that all my life
and will to the grave
-----
i'd reply to you
to you my words don't matter
you will not answer
-----
for all anyone cares
i might as well not exist
i'm scattered words
-----
i'm so different
poet ancient and so odd
how can i be loved
-----
will you sleep with me
no not in that way my dear
peacefully in my arms
-----
beautiful people
yes you and you and you
i see as you are
-----
still looking for love
after all these many years
still a hopelses task
-----
no one loves poets
they just love the written words
dont' think poets are real
