Ode to Lost Love
I awake early and
I have nothing to say
but your name.
I awake early and
I have nothing to remember
But your face.
I am the wild beast, who,
After being befriended,
Turns to bite the hand
So gentle and understanding.
I awake early and
I have nothing to scream
But your name.
--1973, Hollywood, CA
