- does anybody really know? - .


through this pen

I gave her everything
I fell in love
I lived for her all the time
when you talk of heaven above
she was mine
and I died when she was gone
but somehow this body found a way
to carry on

I tried another
and it was almost as good
sister and brother
the talk of the neighborhood
the ideal couple
and yet I never took the fall
even the best of friends can't last
when one does not give it all

and I went searching
naked to the world
my need, my hunger
like a flag it unfurled
and others came around
and one completed me
I fell in love again
then she pulled the rug out from under me

damn the poet who said it was
better to love than not at all
curse the innocence I feel
when I can still hear the love call
damn my heart for wanting to try again
damn my life pouring through this pen


. . .


so now I'm waiting
very much on hold
so hesitating
I probably seem cold
but I am burning
white hot deep inside
the constant yearning
to resurrect what had died

and I wonder if it will take a miracle
to once again feel that life is beautiful
to trust someone to be the whole world to me
to fall in love like the first time endlessly
infinitely
to fall in love with someone falling in love with me
to fall in love the way I know it can be
to fall in love, to give the trust,
trust unconditionally
to fall in love, to be one, to feel free
