Poem 13: Yo-yo Love

It's the sense of loss

that something

uniquely beautiful

has died.

That a feeling

which once

made you whole

is slowly

but surely

tearing you apart.

Yet

the caress

the kiss

her warmth

can reset time,

can

for an instance

remove the pain,

so the process

may begin

again.

Poem 14: Once More

Once more

you leave me,

with an empty room

and a fireless grate,

with a quiet house

and a lean weekend

with a lonely bed

and a broken heart.

Poem 15: The Power

It doesn't quail

with the falling

of night.

Winter's call

doesn't make it

fly south.

It doesn't high-tail

when the heat

is intense.

Force

cannot break it

time

cannot crush it

strength

cannot bend it,

only the recklessness

of youth

can shatter

the power

of a heart.
