I never… (Poetry)

I never kissed you the way I wanted to / Never held you as long as I should...

Wisdom called, I screamed back (Poetry)

Wisdom called and I screamed back, / How dare you make me listen / when being the fool would have been all the sweeter? ...

An ache of betrayal / But you were never mine / A shiver of fear / That you will forget me / like so many others...

I thought of you this morning / Perhaps I am foolish in these early hours / But I wondered where we might be / Had I not run away from you
