Ostracism

 

today I am despondent again

life's too short to endure

your ostracism of me any more.

Whilst you deny me love

my sweet life ebbs away

I have less time for life than you

and none of it to waste -

yet you continue to procrastinate.

And stagnant is my heart

without your ripple

without my tender mouth to kiss

your heavenly nipple

I cannot be a man.

You disinherit me of life

with your cold, cold eyes.

My only wish, to fall asleep

to angelic lullabies

And all I get is an ungrasping hand

and threats of goodbyes

when I ask you my chances

you rely with alibis

and cutting, icy glances

my bosom bursts with

bubble gum romances.
