And the hope was always there.. standing just beyond reason.. and, in case you failed to notice, and couldn't care less to see it is all I have left of what was me How was I to know that to love you...I would leave me? Sleeping in the light rain, and running to laugh aloud.. somewhere I faltered.. I must have slipped into a soft dream where everything was fresh, and anew... Where reality had yet to taint and claim and for once I had you I have to dodge these climatic scenes.. knowing of the hurt.. and, as always, there is that extreme that I must say I grew careless, and for once content.. and there is the rub, as the bard would say.. For contentment iosn't my goal... for it doesn't exist.. I remember happiness, as through anothers eyes... ..and my love... which I rarely find.... happens to be within anothers eyes.. for which I now seldom cry... expectation has beheld me, turning me cold.. within my own solitude I am brazen, and bold. Finding no peace, so the pain no longer holds within that shell.. ...till I am the last to know and there is where I hide.. Edward A. Beerman |
