I didn't mean to hurt you

but intent is as nothing


I could not awaken you

to my reality


and all I could do

was disdain yours


and the love we did realize...


does it matter after all?

will it ever matter to a judgement

that ever finds us lacking


and for whom our best intent

is another joke of our selves?

how I wish our falsity were truth


how I wish love did make a difference
