The Croix (pronounced "crow")
-------------------------
The hidden diamond I couldn't find.
The angel sat at the table behind
the column with me.
Speaking of life's twisted reveries
Wrapped inside complexity.
Ready to read the mind's disease
In a second's ease.

The Croix
The cure.
I'm so unsure.
My faith is gone
Please right the wrong,
Of this one fragment of dust
Scarring the universe with lust.
Alone

We crawl upon this dying sphere
That turns for me only when you're here.
My body's diseased and needs your touch.
My charred heart needs your love so much.
But in the end you'll just laugh
As you send the death-kiss fast.

so true so true, how is it that though we all preach of being together forever, forever turns out to only be a certain number of months or weeks, maybe if we arelucky years. One day we will all have the one who will stay with us for all eternity. Such a wonderful poem.

All I can say is Wow...I loved this one too...do you have all your poetry together in one notebook? Have you ever considered getting them published? All of yours are deep and exceptional...glad I keep finding more to read!
