not for me

messyahdouble negative proof positive
dabble in a double entendre with the one that might have mattered
if she wasn't
not for me
lingering on my tongue
like the last hint of the taste
of a raindrop on my lips
she went to another, a prior life
but before
ah
before
well, a lovely memory, but not for me
maybe i am to be alone
with my dreams to keep me warm at night
my pillow to hold me tight
no shadow in the window
will awake my sight
maybe the whole world is
not for me
and i'll just fade into the woodwork
of a richly paneled study all my own
forever bound up in books
wreathed in the drifting smoke
with a faint hint of aging brandy
and eternity to contemplate alone
what eternity means to me
