Self knit blue cardigan
Wants now of friendship
Wants no more of love
Stopped
On the studios stone stairway steps
I pull you towards me
Yet your faraway smile
Carries the unhappy light
Of certain disengagement
Speak
Of the surprises that silence supposes
I push you away
My immature mind
Finds the complicated
Too odd for contemplation
Slipped
Sidelined it seems, steered from sojourn
This is a poem from Filmic: Love of Our World of Purples & Blues
Available as ebook from Kindle or as a homemade print book, and audio cd from poetryshop
