    Author

    L. J. Underdue

    L. J. Underdue was born in New Jersey, attended Montclair High School for two years and then Tom’s River High School North until graduation, and then attended Bloomfield College for three years. Since completing a poem in first grade, L. J. Underdue found a fondness for poetry, also being a third-generation poet. Writing was also found to be a release and therapeutic—a way to express the inner thoughts and soul, letting us all affirm that we share the same human experiences and emotions.

      MY BELOVED ANGEL, I am nearly mad about you, as much as one can be mad: I cannot bring together two ideas that you do not interpose yourself between them. I can no longer think of nothing but you. In spite of myself, my imagination carries me to you.

      ONE LONELY TEAR

      One lonely tear is all I cry

      One lonely tear since you said good-bye

      Each time I hear that music play

      Each time I feel that certain way

      One lonely tear is all I cry

      One lonely tear, you’ve another; why?

      I see now, how I’ve loved you

      I see now, I should have been true

      One lonely tear is all I cry

      One lonely tear falls from my eye

      Though I now, have someone new

      Though this time I believe we’re through

      One lonely tear is all I cry

      One lonely tear since you said good-bye

      I hope someday we’ll love again

      I hope to love you, until then . . .

      One lonely tear is all I cry

      One lonely tear . . . oh! I could die!
