I Cannot Find Her Name

I often hobnob with despair
By merely saying I don't care.
But those that see can see right through.
The petty of the hobnob rue.

I searched the world in fired find
An answer for this tired mind
And fly above in sanguine shrug
That literal hole that I have dug.

I've rubbed many Aladins lamp
Searched in many a dreamers camp.
I fantasied in ecstasy
I sipped the tea of agony.

I've touched a few of outstretched hand
Hid within the time and sand
And felt and heard the angels sing
The vespers that my heart does ring.

But never has it rend in thaw
This name I penned upon the door.

ya know what Sy-guy... this is the coolest
cadence kissed poem of Unrequited Ive read.
and I keep telling ya...try the raspberry tea  
nectar of the gods  
*WW* sweet Stinky

ps...dig me new sig...Shakes does Unrequited too ...
its me middle name ya know  

When to the sessions of sweet silent thought,
I summon up remembrance of things past ...
I sigh the lack of many a thing I sought.
