Christianne, is a married woman I was very much in love with. She loved me in return. Our feelings for each other were so strong that we felt we could communicate telepathically. At the time, I didn't have very much to offer and didn't want to entice her from the security of her marriage. She lived near a lake frequented by deer. She loved all animals and had a timid, skittish nature. I tried to express my feelings in verse.
Timid Eyes
Timid eyes
From the forest
Beckon; yet hold back,
Wanting to love;
Afraid to trust.
Lithe body
Like a deer
Ready to spring
At the first sign
Of danger.
Delicate features
Worthy of infinite contemplation,
Question,
Ready to colour
At the slightest provocation.
I want to coax her
From the forest,
Show her
There is nothing to fear,
Yet; I know there is.
So, from a distance
I watch
The timid gentle creature,
All I can give her
Is freedom.
