I'VE KNOWN TWO LOVES


I've known two loves:
One was the sun
The other was the moon

I've embraced two loves:
One praised the light
The other yelped at the moon

I've lost two loves:
One fell with the sinking sun
One got lost in the seductive moonlight

I've known two loves:
The moon and the sun -
They insanely won't leave me alone.

  1. I think I should lose the last line. Not really sure? A good sleep/night will tell...

    P.S. Been awake for too long!

  2. Hell, sometimes you have to keep it academic. So I bow my head to convention (just this once).

    P.S. May Charles Bukowski forgive me for my sins :-)
