Ah a cool
Summer breeze

No
I’ve never been
Very good . . .
At being unhappy

Left alone in a time
Without company
I have a tendency
Contrary to despair

It takes the presence
Of someone else
Bent from birth
In discontent
To make me
See constantly
The error of my ways

Oh I admit my sin
Mary Magdalene

White clouds
Over water

Light through leaves
On a single tree

You are a true gift to those you speak of.

Very significant write.

Enjoyed very much.

~huan...

i really like your writing style...and how you work your words:

It takes the presence
Of someone else
Bent from birth
In discontent
To make me
See constantly
The error of my ways

~fantastic!
