it's the lack of everything the feeling
i had with you then the darkness and
mystery of the happy unknown and it's
not so bad now but the never recapturing
of anything most of all the promise
of promise now gilded over by a not
so bad now but still the comfort of
a future with promise to be dealt with
at a later date unlike the not so bad
now where promise is not and future
is and has to be dealt with and not
so bad really is only euphemism and
gloss for the sad fruition of all the
promise in the world
