I Wait For Thee (Dinner Date) Poem by Marcus McKinley

I Wait For Thee (Dinner Date)

Rating: ★5.0


Dip my heart in the River Styx
So that, I may withstand this aching void
This acid test of relationships
Alarums and excursions of her love
Be the albatross around my neck

Alas and alack! ! ! I fear
The invulnerability of my heart is not enough
Here I sit on the coast of Coromandel
Starring at half a candle and an empty chair
My mind is all at sea
