“THE LOVERS” 18 Oct 96

Two lovers
now stand on opposing sides of a world
from forever
from boy to girl

now on the street
ignorance is bliss
its over, the baby screams
from the 3am bedroom

they do not talk
they do not meet
they were once lovers
now they are history

with nothing to show
no two line epitah
in history books
for the thing they shared

from lovers to
to history
