A Poem for You, my loveliest

'twas in those turbulent times

when our love blossomed

those were the years of

ardent struggle

when I was still chained

in the rock of ignorance.

the moment i saw you

i knew it was quicksand

loving you was the most

grievous sin

but all sins are pure sweet

honey suckle to the point

of death.

you shattered those chains

like candy, you licked it all up

i was caught in the whirlwind

of tight embraces and cottony kisses

forgot my Marx,

forgot everything

for you, my love.

now, after fifteen years

i saw you.

you're different

felt nothing

you're like a stranger

felt nothing.
