Te Amo Tanto - Arizona

At last my heart’s been swallowed by the spring

A gorgeous self possessive love bird

Flower lacking

The vise that holds me in

Is starting to unroll again

If only to roll over everything

Knell for a moment by the stream

Coughing as the forest burns

And causes me to dream

I had no sense time

No empathy

No present mind

No reason now to stifle back the scream

As the loneness grows

To clothe my soul

In dirt

And then one day by following the beam

I reached the end

By God my friend didn’t get out of the green

It’s been about six years

And strangely I am dry of tears

I smile, just as happy as I sing
