The Difference
by George J. Carroll → (All Poetry by George J. Carroll)

Looking from the inside out,

Seeing the world and its delights.

Never touching another human,

Yet how I came to know desires.

 

Wanton was the pleasure

That seemed to overtake me.

I left the knowing for the unknown,

And it didn't seem to make a difference.

 

There was a difference after all

And I found it out quite innocently.

Pleasure over took me quickly,

And it was the demise of all love.
