I found my old viewmaster
I had it as a child
but all the older photo discs
are lost
were never filed
I wish I had a disc of you
your face in stereo
the times we had
are past and done
why did you let me . . . more

when I think of those sweet love songs
that were never meant for me
oh, how I break down and cry
I've been waiting for far too long
for true love filled with ecstasy
why it won't . . . more

when you died
Thomas
it was so sudden
there was no time for tears
the unreality of it all pollutes me
I am suddenly alone
hundreds of miles away
I travel
just to be with you one last time
I would not . . . more

I see you through glass darkly
autographed in my mind
our difference shines out starkly
yet we have much in kind
I feel your spirit move past mine
through endless arcade halls
the mirrors broken in a line . . . more

you wanted me
that much was true
but you turned cold
when I loved you
it tore my soul
fate's tragic moth
ate through a hole
that rent love's cloth
I can't believe
our paths did cross
you cast . . . more

as soulmates
we are second cousins
and our minds meld
with all the sweetness and irony
of love supplanted by our fears
when I think of you
I see my Cyrano
fighting for the honor of his muse
and my admiration . . . more

From my point of view
What I now say is true
We live our seperate lives
And yet I realize
Even though I bask within your sun
There is no hope we can connect as one
Until we chance to meet
My heart inside . . . more

I could have loved you
if we had only met
but fate was unkind
and left me with regrets
of a love that could have been
or at least the best of friends
now that you've gone
no one to carry on
I could . . . more

I'm scared
way too scared of letting go
of my illusion of you
I fear
if you were near I'd lose control
and submit to your embrace
if we were ever face to face
I'm tired of pretending
that . . . more

we are sitting in a state of ennui
watching television till we sleep
there is no excitement in our lives
so we watch other people live
we are devoid of ecstacy or joie de vivre
therefore we cease to . . . more

thoughts of love stir in my head
as I try to sleep in bed
but the words crash in my ear
is there something dread to fear
no it's just the sound of bliss
entering a stolen kiss
nothing less than broken . . . more

my infant mind crawls along
and seriously wants to be fed
so she cries
disturbing the night
and my peace
waking her caretaker's body
with disturbing thoughts
I should have aborted her
when I had . . . more

we never met without regret
our moods poured out like wine
your subterfuge trashed our refuge
and ruined love sublime
and now I feel so cold
so now I can see you
projected in my mind
you're just a . . . more

acrobatic sunsets
glimmer in my mind
two hearts collide
in iridescent time
was I but blind
I could see you clear
in the back of my mind
subjected to my fear
it wasn't working out
there can't . . . more

love's illusions lost
it's worth the cost
to change my attitude
unrequited love
surrounds me from above
and metamorphosized my mood
but it isn't real
the way you make me feel
it's just . . . more

Mike Niemczyk is a San Francisco-based poet whom I met back in the 1990's. We became great friends and from time to time we still correspond. He also sends me poetry broadsides, and today . . . more

I must be fooling myself
thinking I can see the future
in your tender eyes
poetry comes so sweetly
when you, my muse, entertain me
safe in my imagination
but, oh, what soft swooning I feel
with the very . . . more

if I could take away your pain
I know I would
and chase away the rain
I wish I could
your grief wears heavy
like a weight of stone
and though you're not alone
I comprehend
what you intone
if I could . . . more

forgive my impetuous nature
I am not worth time or space
at least
not from you
compassion turns to cynicism
love to apathy
truth to lies
tears to desert
I don’t have even the energy
for hate
numbness . . . more

like Ruth and Boaz
were meant to be
I wish our love
was not fantasy
we'd share tender kisses
without masks or lies
whenever I think of you
my heart yearns and cries
but what if love's an illusion . . . more
