Where is this invisible lover?
The one who plays hide and seek
With my emotions
Leaving me unguarded
...
We are robots,
You a man of steel
I a lost spirit.
You walk through life

The lid was raised on a black wooden box,
releasing the odor of expensive perfume
on old velvet capes; fancy hats and gloves

“Land is the most important possession,
when all your earnings are spent
you can live off the land.”
There was wisdom in the way my father spoke,
...
I haven’t thrown a Frisbee since you left...

Splashed puddles
Or had water
...
Color Him Gone
Where is this invisible lover?
The one who plays hide and seek
With my emotions
Leaving me unguarded
Eclipsing my life.
