Another Reader

by Joe Cramer

You simply become another long-lost reader
Of the words that were once written for you.
And yet, I write on, forever and always forlorn.
So many of my words were true, were good.
The rest were simply lost in translation, bad.
Exactly the things you didn't want to hear
While I simply sat helpless and always so imperfect.
So you just become another misplaced reader,
With far fewer words that are meant for you.

Author's Note: ... the other shoe drops, it always does.... I can never walk around on eggshells....
