REQUIEM (Originally Posted 11/14/2009)

People always assume my stories and poems are about me. Well, they usually aren't.

This one was.

I thought I'd post a little poem I wrote about a lost love. I can be brief when I want to be!

REQUIEM

Her name evoked sweetness, exotic delight,

Our love against logic was found.

We burned like a skyrocket, lighting the night,

Till we sputtered and crashed to the ground.

It didn't end badly, yet didn't end well.

She's a part of me still. This I own.

And I fight being thrust toward my personal Hell,

As I sleep with a ghost, all alone.

And thanks for your time.

REQUIEM ~~ Reprinted from 11/14/2009

There'll be no "Comical Wednesday" entry this week (and maybe not next week). Instead, something a little different. I thought I'd post a little poem I once wrote about a lost love. I can be brief when I want to be!

REQUIEM

Her name evoked sweetness, exotic delight,

Our love against logic was found.

We burned like a skyrocket, lighting the night,

Till we sputtered and crashed to the ground.

It didn't end badly, yet didn't end well.

She's a part of me still. This I own.

And I fight being thrust toward my personal Hell,

As I sleep with a ghost, all alone.

And thanks for your time.
