Just Two Poems
Sitting in the leather chair
I wonder for how long
How long this would go on
The time has gone by
The seconds fluttering by
My heart still beats
Months has passed
But it still seems
Like yesterday
I write in dismayal
In bitterness
Because you’re fine
And I am not.

I write of the one who shuns
A stone heart he has
My lover
The one my heart yearns for
His indecisiveness threatened
To tear my heart apart
His beguiling smile
I despise now
Because it brings to remembrance
That which was real long ago
I waited
Waited for him to come to
My lover is coldhearted
He loves me not
Or maybe he did
He shuns me
And so will I.
