the lake by Richard TrotterI saw a shiny polished floor
And imagined it was a lake
By which I walked with her
On an eerie summers day.
In silence we strolled
under the yellow sky
Until I recalled, her indifference
and felt the dull ache of truth 01/11/2004 Author's Note: leeds university experiences..
