_I just can’t help being ‘romantic’…!_

__

I’m only for now,

Not forever.

And at that moment when

You’ve opened your heart

A teeny tiny crack - 

That’s when you’ll

Look for me but I’ll be gone

Off the righteous track.

Beaten like a weather vane

Left out, like the cat.

In the rain you’ll pine - 

A darkened door 

Empty feelings left ajar

All alone, sophomore. 

‘Are you messing with me?’:

He lamented. 

She said, ‘I like doing a lot of

Things with you.

Dishevelling is but

one of them.’

See his Cheshire cat smirk

Reappearing from ear to ear

Only a morning 

basking shark

Would be proud

Of teeth so clear.  

Can we be anything? 

What is it we need? 

Did you feel the last Millenium

Crushing souls with 

lightening speed. 

No us, we’re lost,

not left,

to give.
