Kathi K.

Confusion’s growing, just where my senses said …
Her feelings, her children, her husband, her law school,
her passion, her family, herself, and me.

The lack of conscious choice leads us
and our honesty into ever narrower passages

I truly care for her and, if she were free, I would love her;
her mind, her passion, her company are excellent …
but so much reality … so many lives … many she loves
and all of whom need her love … stand in the way.
And she … she just wants to let it happen ‘naturally…’
She’s honest and naive in such proportions I cannot grasp her.

I feel it all short lived … too finely balanced …
if she continues in a hurry.
Her problems are much more complex than mine ever were
and her approach less cautious
My eyes get bigger as we continue … and I hold myself
for once she told me I judged her too soon … far too soon.

Events are running … time’s running … she’s moving
school’s starting … Nichol’s ending …
and now she wants to go to Colorado with me
and she tells Chuck after Chuck’s displayed jealousy towards me
and she wants to mix Amy and Danny when Danny knows
she’s a girlfriend of mine … Lord!…

And she talks good philosophy
and has passion as good as I’ve seen
and she’s easy to be with and likes me
Lord … look out world … just look out world.
