Hungry Men

I walked in      to see the most powerful
 
Man I knew    strong walk, full of confidence
 
Pride             and extreme determination
 
Lovely  face– very lovely face   and yes,
 
he thought of me with joy, and found it amusing
I too, found his freedom amusing   I adored his fortune
 
The man                                   adored my insanity
                  We fell in love
 
But who’s to call it love?   Not he    Not I
I am too busy for him         He cares not of my feelings
 
 My feminine, emotional, feelings
 
          Our love is sweet in bed
 
       But, when he is finished with me
                   The love is gone
It is unjust                             and I want to cry
      But I know better than to cry
 
In front of him                      I must smile,
With curled hair             knee-high socks
 
               I will not hurt his pride
