You and I

Mike Berger, Ph.D.

The sky is raw steel. Iron birds
mount into the tempered sky.
They weep over you and I.
Separated by impossible distances
though I hold you in my arms.

Vices of iron clutch both of us,
unrequiting of our desires.
You—-tethered to tradition and
family. I, a wandering troubadour.

I’ll sing you a song of what can
never be. I’ll dry that tears in your
eyes. As you cry, and iron falcon
sheds a tear. A tear for what can
never be—-you and I.
