I’ve lost you, haven’t I?
I won’t acknowledge it.
My words fall silently
like autumn foliage.

Inside an empty church,
where mass just ended,
I’m Christ, whose open arms
now hang suspended.

Love flourishes and fades.
Alpha - Omega.
One day, a god; the next --
a homeless beggar.

Perhaps, it’s for the best, --
no love -- no jealousy.
Wash down my farewell kiss
with sips of Hennessy.

We’ve loved each other, dear.
How can this love be over?
The cold receiver falls
as though an old revolver.

I am also amazed by this. This was beautifully written. I'm not sure why no one else has replied. The part about you being Christ maybe be sort of controversal but if the person understands the poem they will see that you meant nothing of a greater sense by it. This was great.

Desire nothing except desirelessness. Hope for nothing except to rise above all hopes.
Want nothing & you will have everything.
