ODE

Could you ever see me…

Ever see me for something new,

Exotic

Warm

Kind.

Words that are thrown into the

Love torn ether.

When we were young…and all

Long limbs and growing

Egos.

When I wanted you even back then,

And you turned

Ran

Judged

For legitimate reasons considering

My set grimace and

Emotion etched in slate.

When you were pride and soul

And light and sunshine. You were

What I craved and desired.

Before I knew what to desire even

Meant.

When we grew…I admit the harsh

Slices of insults

And barbs grew also with passion

And anger. However..

Were your words only ever laced

With anger…or like mine…was there

Something that was hidden beneath the

Hidden edge?

Is there much point in the ponders

Of a now grown man?

I look back at us, correction, at

Me.

I regret so many things….you,

Stupid emerald creature with the clueless

Heart and enraptured friends.

I regret never holding you.

I regret never once considering if it was…

If was for keeps…

If I should have fought for longer

Or harder…just…well….fought.

I am now lost in the memories

Of the glorious boy I could have been, and

The wonderful man I could now

Be with. Alas…the time has gone.

Can a man ponder too much though?

When I caress pale breasts…when I hear

The first cries of my son…

When I smell golden hair through my

Decaying fingers…..

When I have this….and all I see is emerald…

Is it all too much?

Am I meant to move on?

Am I meant to list you merely as

'Boy wonder'

And stumble off with insults and hearts

Shattered like glass.

Do you ponder me?

Do you remember how I extended my heart

Within my hand…when I was all

Long limbs and confused soul…

And you turned away?
