[Someone Who Loves You] a poem

Someone who loves you is lost,
gone astray,
through some deeper, darker,
unimaginable brush children talk myths
around;

& everyone who may love you
or may have at some time now
bygone, tunes into your misery,
giving you their condolences aloud,
& quietly muttering, "Better you than me."

All's left is someone who loves you,
lost in child-borne myth,
whose shadow cowers under
the smolder of the poison fugue
of those who no longer loves
or would love to see you lost with
that someone
