Future Now Past
I offered you the moon and stars,
you took the sun instead
Your darkness preyed, all love waylaid,
my dreams and wishes dead
Beyond all hope, with stolen light,
my fear you then unmasked
And pulled a curtain across my heart,
—the future now my past
(Villanova Pennsylvania: June, 2017)
