1971 Poetry by Michael F. Nyiri


Trust
I

Hello, there
How are you?
Good, I'm feeling fine.
And I hope you have a rewarding future, also.

II

Hi, friend.
Hey, wait a minute.
You look sorta down today.
What's the matter?
Oh, really.
Sit down and tell me about it.

III

Yeah, I was in love once, too.
Uh huh, it took me a long time
To get over it.
Yeah, you can see I'm still alive.
But when it happened I didn't 
Feel so much like staying......

IV

So I can feel your problems.
Because I had the same kind.
Well, I guess everybody has troubles,
Oh, I'm glad we could
Talk ours over.

V

It's funny, I'm feeling funny
I felt this once before
Wait a minute, something's happening.

VI

I think...
I think...

VII

It's hard to say this
No it isn't it's easy,
I mean, we really know each other.
We're like, I mean, you know

VIII

I love you.

IX

Wow.
