(Revised)

As I tried to understand
Draining thoughts
poured to my hands

So, I tried to write to you
But my fingers froze
Solid blue

Right now, my mind
It can’t think straight
Its lines of thoughts
Are figure eights

And so, I tried to pass the time
But sorrow stained
These words in rhyme

As the ice turned into rain
With each touch
I felt great pain

Right now, my heart
It makes no sound
It went on strike
And can’t be found

Was it love
That we both shared
Or was it only
That you cared
For yourself
Deep and true
These written tears
Now ask of you?

"Melvin, the best thing you got going for you is your willingness to humiliate yourself."

Thank you, that was very kind.
