tangiers diary

i heard nothing for weeks on end
and then suddenly appeared
a missive with his name atop 
and words for me to hear
i open carelessly tearing about
and read the words enclosed
to see before my broken eyes
a heart thats calling out
calling out in pain
the misery foretold
the words that lend my eyes
to see that we are still alone
our bodies together 
our minds addressed
our hopes and feet walk on
my heart is nothing without 
his mess
and what else can go on???
i crinkle my nose
and tears do fill this misery laden heart
i tried for him
i tried for him
but trying wasn't enough
