I know this doesn't quite conform to any traditional forms - and therefore not quite to Menshevik's challenge - but it's a form I've never used before, and I hope you all like it anyway. :) Magda In the single moment, Betwixt the day and night, I still feel you near. Once every day, I dream of you, And I still see you so clear. In that single moment, The years all slip away, And we're young and still together. You never really left me, I kept you in my heart, My love, I will forever. In that precious moment, When I stop to miss you, I can almost touch what should have been. Our happiness, Our family, That neither of us lived to see. I died then too, The man I was is gone, Only his pain and anger still remain. But in that single moment, Before the night is come That younger, kinder man can almost live again. There's another young man like me now, At least, he has my face. But he's a different man, somehow We occupy a different place. I pray he never knows the pain, I suffer every day anew, And yet, I pity him, my love, A me, who can't have you. Happiness to you, Dyce ______________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free Email at http://www.hotmail.com
