Ado

Once,
there was a time
after time
when a word from your lips turned the world around ----
in an opposite rotation.

But now you've changed; you're so far away.
And I long for the past dreaming of the days,
with you.

Now so, oh sullen,
so silent and so blue ----
What ever happened to the fire in you?!

Your gaze through the window glass
caused me to think. . .
You're still living in the past!

O how did you become withdrawn and so cool.
No warmth in your heart.
No love for a fool.

Now so, oh sullen
so peaceful, and so blue
Do I miss the fire
that hides in you?

With some ado,

I do.
