You Are This Demigod Poem by Doris Cornago

You are soft as the daylight on my face

But my head gets a bump on hitting the bed

The love which previously kept us together

Now makes things look glum, tastes stale...


In my memory you are this demigod

But in the break of day your hard glare

Rends my heart in pieces beyond repair

Why do all lovely things end this way...


I should like to cry in despair

But my heart has turned to cold stone

There is no way it will thaw again

Adieu my love, remember the love we had...
