Pen Name
I never preferred a pseudo name.
What is there in it, to take a pen name, anyway?
Truth is oftentimes the strongest reason
to keep on striving, all by oneself, when
Everyone leaves you, one by one,
and you are left out there
to linger more in pain,
As life was not generous enough
to let you go, or
to honor your natural process of healing.
Tears and life, all these nights of strife
Are still trying desperately to find a pattern
Where a love song will fit in, precise and perfect
To fetch the gurgling sounds of becoming.
