To Pretend That All Is Well..... Poem by RIC BASTASA

To Pretend That All Is Well.....



the hands i love
so much
touch me tonight

i close my eyes
and feel
the tenderness of

numbness. I understand
how is it

to love and be not loved
in return

to pretend that all is
well

feel the warmth and not
believe in it

tired and then i fall
into sleep

satisfied that i have
not asked much

from life and its
complications.
