INDIFFERENCE?, by                    
First Line: Like bright gold coins
Last Line: My very dear?
Subject(s): Indifference


Like bright gold coins
The days slip through
My fingers,
And the nights with you
Are a delight,
A dream
That makes life seem
A lazy, lovely pageant
And our parts a role
Without an encore,
And without a goal.

Why must a question
Seep into my peace
And pound and pound and pound
At me without surcease?
There is, I know,
No answer
Yet it grips me
With the fear:
Where are we drifting,
My very dear?
