Lonely Than Ever Tracy
Dear Tracy,
I never expected you to go
Not even anticipated your leaving
I am disturbed by my lonesomeness
Wishing you as a true friend
Were near
I never thought to write letters
We just lived for a tomorrow
Not ever even telephoning
Popping in was okay
I never expected to hear your voice through wires
Never knew those plans were futile
Never thought we would weaken
Our heart of love
Never dreamt we would be season’s apart
Never did we dream of a yesterday
Nor licked memories bare
We never bargained for this
We never dwelt on reflections
My loneliness is obvious
I weep as I write
For hurt I was
When life turned sour
And bitter became I
When I knew
The power of love
Hate
Dejection
Loneliness
Memories
Aimlessness
Pent-up frustration.
If only memos kept!
Forever,
Comfort.
