I saw you just

Sitting there

All alone

And looking scared

So I thought

I’d offer

A kind word or two

In the hope

You might stop

Feeling so blue

---

A Forgone Conclusion

It’s
very
nice of
you to
be kind

But
please,
don’t
pay me
any mind

For
I am
now
a cause
that’s
lost

As
onto
the
pyre my
heart’s
been
tossed
