je l'ai vue rire

"Your deeds are famous,so stay resolute, my lord,
defend your life now with the whole of your strength. 
I shall stand by you." - from Beowolf

a year more,
only a year more,
that is all

you are not 
that much older
than me


are you
listening?


no,
you never do -
i forget you are busy

you want children
but you worry 
about your figure

i say you don't
need to worry 
about that


you are so 
beautiful
and i
just...

i need to breathe.

you dress in
basketball shorts,
very unlady-like
if you ask me -
i don't mind though


you wear your 
hair down - 
it is messy,
tangled by 
the wind

life goes on, 
life goes on,
this i have learned

and one day
you may be
mine
