SADNESS OF STRANGE KIND ???

Pushed into the semi-dark corner 
of juvenile sadness of a strange kind
in the womb of your words unkind ,
I cringe and fall like a frightened leaf 
into an ant-hole at the tree’s taproot
without being able to trace
back my unsteady foot ;

thinking quite long about
the new reason you gave for my existence
wasn’t it of your own making ?
your dream’s wild old offshoot ?

Then why did you dear
create this vague fear
of death and damnation?
of lies and frustration?
when each beat of our young heart
secretly croons about that secret soulful union !!!
