Weak Spots Xxix
I cannot believe you traversed
My desires and hopes
Without once contemplating
Me!
And you see how I have failed you,
In revealing all my fantasies,
For many fail to invigorate them,
To make them tangible and readable
Yet how I triumph over Love's
Imaginaries and realities alike
In a four stanza-ed drawl
A waste of time—a relief of end—
To finish together,
In this sea of silence and words—
Finishing together is
Both my plague and my comfort
To this—Adieu, Adieu!
And five stanzas will have to do
