A Casualty of Dreams
Long before we met, I already
Decided not to have anything to do
With your ethos;
You’re an entity belonging to the heights
Of heaven;
Beyond the dreams of mortals
Yet, despite those unreachable ranges
Our paths in ways coincidental
Cross too often
Only to confirm our strangeness
And disparity of lifetimes
For this my heart rises in
Revolt against the dwellers eternal;
Up there,
I am a total outcast
This I know I for I’ve been
There twice
With mutineers… though
Always the first one to die.
