Richard H. Dunsany Poet Dramatic Monologue

You and I

You were lonely,
        So was I,
But you had a room for their key too soon.

        You don't know me,
        Nor do I,
A dark edge of change; a golden touch of hysteria in this gilded exchange.

        I hear voices,
        Your home cries,
The labyrinth of two men is what we what we falter in.

        I was fooled,
        You were lovely,
Surreal in a world where blackest thoughts fill dolls and bots.

        You almost died,
        I love you,
At last I've spoken the truth, a message hid in the forest of my youth. 

        You look sad
        That I've said goodbye,
So I'll burn down these trees and allow your earth to See.

The lone wolf's grave shall ever be my fated will,
no warmth that you loan can dismantle winter's drill.
