14th Nov by Richard TrotterLonging builds the quietest cradle
holds you when you don't need it
like a statue locked in a death pose
I have a hunger , and cannot feed it.
I'm textured like a painted sun down
frozen from the day I first saw you,
as your boredom falls to crush me
it breaks but I still adore you. 11/14/2004 Posted on 11/14/2004 Copyright © 2025 Richard Trotter
