So real. So Vital ...So sad that even a witch can not be loved. Why is it
so hard to feel. So diffucult to be with someone different. These are
mysteries not to be solved in this lifetime....maybe the next

It is a sad poem but one about how nothing is ever what we want or think we
want. Her Witch-wife is partial figment, not completely in the same realm.
Not something that can be held on to or even completely understood. Too
many constraints are imposed from the outside for something of another
realm to ever be able to adapt completely. It is a poem of longing and
ultimate loss.
