I Needed just Lives

I needed just your life

I met a woman. On the train. Magnetized
My life, my heart. I hoped the woods of life

I was a poor man. I am a poor man. No love
No money, no car, no BMW, no castle. No woman

“She is the daughter of a big man,” said Satan.
This is true. Satan is right. Loved heart.

I forgot that woman. But she cannot forget me
She is reading these lines, I know. Just read, and read

Someone
Your poet
Loved you
