A Regret

A regret to never having seen you dance
on feet un-ballerinalike, a behind Beyonce worthy
Voice that half whispers, half flirts
They all fall in love with you
But you claim I'm your Ali, the greatest
Your Hulk, the biggest, greenest,
Dirtiest, meanest, most honest
Love of all time
Is a long time
I believe you each time
The fool that I am
We haven't even lived
One percent of one percent
Of eternity and we fight
Forever it seems now
Missing you even though
I know you're hating me
This time for keeps it seems
Goodbye is your favorite word
It is unsheathed, a sword
