A Professional Distance
I wanted to give you
something you could value
you could have caught it
in my eyes
given proper time
but these eyes are mine
you cannot capture
What is forbidden?
Would it have been unique?
Had I kissed your cheek?
What could come of that? (I laugh)
wave good-bye
you're gone the chapter ends
and wish
I had sealed it with a kiss.

something you could value
you could have caught it
in my eyes
given proper time
but these eyes are mine
you cannot capture
What is forbidden?
Would it have been unique?
Had I kissed your cheek?
What could come of that? (I laugh)
wave good-bye
you're gone the chapter ends
and wish
I had sealed it with a kiss.
1989
