Another night
it's off to bed
persistant thought
of things unsaid
No unache
for aching head--
I tell me lies.
I say you're dead.
Loneliness
inside a tomb,
burning wax,
to war the gloom
and one for hope,
an embryo,
That I am love,
that yearns to grow,
these walls I kick--
a loving womb...
insistance taunts
the rise of bread.

I wish that you were here again.
I wish too much again my friend.
