Some Kind of Ode

My old friend: When will you run dry? You are so familiar, Some days I forget your pain. I write to you every night, Words unconsciously composed In my dreams. If only I could give you one cold shoulder And you would disappear. It would be a mistake, of course. Without you I am not me.
