It's lost in the title.
The abrupt word Has fallen From my lips The rash gesture The rose Sent too soon I walk home In rain Watch the thick drops Splashing into puddles I hear the splash Echo I know full well That I will sleep Alone Restless, I wander The maze Of dreams Asleep I toss and turn Till dawn Waking I feel her kiss Pressed Upon my naked Chest Then her light Flees Into the rising sun I rise to meet her To hold in metaphor What in reality Can never Be mine
