forever the light
surrounded by pale darkness
puts you out of sight.

— — — —

strangers meet again
snow’s melting on tarmac streets
only one shadow.

— — — —

possibly alright
want to keep my feelings tight
too close to my heart.

— — — —

but soon it will show
how to make the reason glow
inside the darkness.

— — — —

being in one’s prime
only a matter of time
until it’s over.

— — — —

take another chance
make the other man wry glance
don’t share the bedroom.
