A slight reference to the May 2012 poem "There was always someone"


Coals and Ice

There is always someone before me
that didn't give what I can
that took what I would never take


Her shadow sits in the room with us
and in his mind she twists his image of me

So his wall - that same wall I melted by merely being there
is rarely lowered

and I am left throwing myself at it
in an effort to be let in

My love, or his love for me is too fresh
too young a flickering flame

only deeper white hot coals
can burn this hate

But can I?


...should I?
