When you
are deep
But stop
at glib
Your words
fail to
Have depth
And you
cry help
As this
is how
You tell
me of
Your pain
The life
we lead
Will make
more sense
If lines
are clear
To read
The fear
is that
Our road
is blocked
With words
that have
No home
My colleague is the best
Wise without a doubt
He really is quite perfect
Lovely in and out
My colleague is a rock
Calm in every way
I value time he takes
Patient come what may
My colleague is a wonder
Because of him I stay
Sitting just along
Every working day
I have written to you
A text to send
Things to say
But if I send it
It will hurt us
I don’t want that
And yet
I am hurt already
I thought that we had
So much love for each other
But now I fear not
All of life is filled with glee
I have the choice and thus the key
To live this life of glee with thee
I write these lines as I am free
If you do not stop
When I ask you to stop
Then I will not stop
Saying it has to stop
If you carry on
Being bleak on and on
Then I will go on
As we need to get on
If we can be kind
See each other as kind
A much better kind
Will grow strong being kind
But this has to be
An agreement to be
Forever, so please
Be forgiving of me
If you can watch me
As I die
You will know my joy
As all of you
Is all of me
Your love has been my ploy
