Unrequited
Perhaps you have always been there
Buried deep in my thoughts,
Hidden and tucked away
In a room I seldom visit.

your tears, and the echo of my own.
We met when I was ten and tender,

Author of The Closer's Song

Just letting you know, my first book has been published. It's a book of poems, but please don't let that put you off. At least one person (who I DIDN'T bribe) has said something nice about it. If you'd like to judge it for yourself, there are excerpts here -
http://www.bewrite.net/bookshop/excerpts/the_jealousies.htm
and it's available to purchase, for a measly $11.99, from Amazon, Barnes & Noble etc - http://tiny.cc/HR7tt
Please help feed the starving poet and his family.
Lots of love,
Ben
