Lover's Lover
by Chris Sorrenti
Ping-ponged yo yo
Slippery little snake
Always on your way to something
Do you follow me straight?
Lover's lover
Little loner
Amidst your many friends
Quiet as a siren you are
Yet loud as the biggest stone
What you are
Is what I was
And when I change again
You'll get off on what I am
Then we’ll do it all again
I know you know
You think I know
That with me you're in time
But all you do is keep your distance
Someday we'll both be fine

| Posted by Kristina Woodhill on 11/29/15 at 05:06 PM A lively give and take of rhyme here, Chris. "Quiet as a siren you are
Yet loud as the biggest stone" - terrific contrasts here. Of course, that third stanza is just fun to read out loud. You have successfully captured the elusive. |
