Regret is a luxury
I can ill afford
my pockets are as empty
as my heart-
the place you used to be
across the sea
wicked grin & all

Forever is as unreachable
as the moon-
longing for it's glow &
the lazer light show
in the warmth of your eyes
I do miss you

Memories remain
animated for every private
view, etched in bone
lest I forget
& begin to regret-
a luxury I can ill
afford...

Sunkissed.

I LOVE the last stanza...Beautiful!

I do not know whether I was then a man dreaming I was a butterfly, or whether I am now a butterfly dreaming I am a man.
