"You are alone and I am alone... My love I need you please can you not see?
Transcendental Sonnet #1227: Alone Together
You are alone and I am alone I will never understand this life First and best and last love I have known Why are we not together somehow I as your husband you as my wife?
They talk about men not committing I am throwing myself at you now Trapped in a river of forgetting I struggle to swim upstream to be At your side forever frustrated
Remember when we spoke of destiny? We spoke of fate and of being fated To be together always you and me My love I need you please can you not see?
I loved him. At age twelve he touched my heart with his music. At age twenty he captured my heart when our eyes met as he sat on a stage and sang Four months later, he fractured my heart with his refusal to allow us to stay together. At age seventy
that's just so apropo
to my afternoon
thanks,
