Now that I see clearly,
Not quite so chique after all,
Stunning in the half light,
Couldn't focus, moving non-stop,
(Not the only reason you couldn't stop)
The focus isn't that great now either,
But not that bad,
Not bad enough by half.


One of a very few poems I am happy with and one of only two posted here. Ihope you like.

Hi, not sure what your poem is about but you seem to have reached some clarity in a situation and you have expressed with some realism.  
Look forward to more of your work.

I was attempting to use the idea of bringing a girl home and then being dissapointed in the morning as a metaphor for ambitions which when fulfilled are an anti-climax. Thanks for replying and I hope you might like it better with this hint.
