LOST WAR

flapping its wings on my window
and singing watery songs i do not understand
i remember how for long i stood beside you
and beckoned for a place in your heart
and i wonder if all the words of love with which
i tried to win a place in you sounded
like the watery song of this bird
i see myself, how i walked away
from you
back into myself like a soldier
who returns home after surviving a lost war
