Snap

Tiredness courts despondency
As love favours skipping
Only water from the stream
Will bring the eyes back to life

You might choose
Or may already have chosen
A time or place to lose
Or for the object to be broken

That I co-exist
Is hardly any enhancement
A past unable to resist
What the glance meant

A gleam in the eye
As passing as a smile
All the while and by and by
It was either pure or puerile

Without the dotted page
Where will be the guidance
No more the energy to rage
Simply to slide with subsidence
