This is the first in a series of poems wrote by various
characters in 'The Man Who Cried'. Some more mature
than others, this is the first and, to me, the most weak.
More will follow but this is a letter wrote to Cesar by
Suzie that was never delivered.
Dear Cesar,
My life is said to be complete,
My father, family and I,
But although this is described as dreams fulfilled,
I cannot help but cry.
Perhaps it was somewhere on my way,
My dream was changed and born anew,
I'm all alone but surrounded,
When all I want is you.
I wish I could lay down on your chest,
And breathe in your calming scent deep,
My life is but a half of a whole,
And every night I weep.
I imagine your there as I sing on the stage,
I imagine we're alone together,
If I concentrate hard enough you're near,
I hear your voice so clear.
Please return to me my love,
A gypsy never stays put,
Your war has been fought and now you must,
Come back to me with lust.
Love,
Your little Suzie.
