I’ll wait for you.
I’ve made up my mind.
And there is no way on Earth
You can change it this time.
I am the Redwood
Of the California coast:
Impervious to your noble flames
But I will bend to your frost.
I will ignore
Your righteous protest
That your distance from me
Is all for the best.
But if you can manage
To leave me alone again,
To somehow make me
Live without the voice I fell in love with then
God help you,
Please do so
Because at this point this pretense
Is worse than your abandonment
The first time.
