A Brevity of Beauty

The Bottom Line Two of Jealousy and One of Being Happy



"Love and Obsession"

In earnest... nothing you've done is wrong,
Trust I have for you, much more than few.
Still its a bother that strikes me from every side,
That eats at me deeply inside.
My obsession is quite complete.
And furiously bitterly sweet.
Makes me act out a perfect creep.
In close anticipation like a conniving thief.
Affection, wrongly shown in a display of jealousy.

David





"No pause, Only Jealousy"

Something unimportant and singularly simple
I make a national alert, about a mundane wrinkle
An apocalyptic fuss about feeling rotten
Even if after this fit, all is soon forgotten

"Happiness Visits Me"

This is a precious moment
A surge of happiness
And it is bliss in brevity
Of which I take advantage of
Because this gravity that brings glee
Might leave me at any moment
So I will shine in this pleasure
If only for a moment
A twinkle in my eye
Beauty is in the world
And if only for a moment
I will revel in this jubilation
Despondency will surely return to me
But this imprint of lividness will never leave
