The inconvenience
Of losing you,
From losing sleep,
To losing my mind.
_____________________
The disaster
Of a fall so steep,
That one’s remains
Would be hard to find.
_____________________
I mourn the loss
Of my upright sanity,
Which has now given way
To bloody gravity.
_____________________
Forgotten tears
Now overflow,
Like Whitney Houston asked:
Where do broken hearts go?
_____________________
The sweet luxury
Of tender romance
Has been eclipsed
By a heart’s somber dance.
