Kindling's Fire

She made me more real than I could stand,
but choice was not an option
And reaching in deep she pulled tomorrow
out of yesterday’s regret
Leaving me to find a home for all the
wasted memories and time
Loving me only just enough 
—to begin to start again

(Houserville Pennsylvania: December, 1971)
