We Who Are Not Worthy

We who are not worthy
Do not ask for love.
We can live without it,
Prefer living without it,
Keeping ourselves busy,
So busy,
Not the least little opening
Where love could leak in.

So many kinds of love,
And lust,
And love,
But when I first touched your hand,
I knew I was home.

The Speed Of Regret

I can’t quite believe
All these lovely young women
Will grow old so soon
And lose what they labored
So long to possess,
What these ravenous young men
Long to devour.

In less time than they'd guess,
In less time than they’ll know,
With the speed of regret
All the young years go.
