"Never Share"

I’ll write about you 

Until I’m thin air 

But this poem 

I’ll never share   

I’ll talk about 

Our first stare 

With which no other 

I’ll ever share   

My fingertips locked 

In her curly hair 

Hers to keep ‘cause 

I’ll never share   

Face so delicate 

Figure so fair 

Angels can’t hope 

To ever share   

Mind of a compass 

Morals of a square 

Only God 

Seems to share   

Pleasant and lovely 

And strong and rare 

Traits only she 

May ever share     

And world around her 

She seems to wear 

Only to hope

She’ll ever share   

But it’s our separate worlds

That seemingly chair 

For with any one else 

Distance be no bear

And all the miles 

From here to there 

Keep us from 

Completing our pair 

In a moment which 

In dreams we’d share   

But I’ll write of you 

Until I’m thin air 

But this poem 

I’ll never share
