Love Poem: Baby Love

Baby Love

that sweet paean 
where you and I began
the soft concern 
from those lips I yearn
was gently, quickly
coldly abandoned
tossed into a river 
to drown at the muddy bottom

I know, I know
I shall plot my rebuttal
for feelings have no place 
in your tribunal

I must be swift
so swift of heart and mind
when your demons 
come to call
