And She Said Goodbye

And She said : Be gone...Do not look me in the eyes We were not belongers but intruders who happened to trespass into each other's lives We were no Romeo and Juliette but great pretenders. Like moon rocks- Believing they are the ones who light up an infinite sky. Be Gone...Do not look me in the eyes Let not my lips go there to that young and serene night where we danced barefoot on the sand with arms embraced against the sadness of lost time. Your decision has been made. The last petal of an untouched margarita withered too early in dust and rain And you never asked why. Be Gone...Do not look me in the eyes Do not remember me Do not think of me... Forget my foreign whisper Like I'll soon forget the wrinkle in your smile There was never a better place Nor will there be another time The empty pages have been filled Our unfinished book- Not anymore. You' ll become a nobody...Like I am your nobody A trembling echo in your hourglass fading in the sand An empty barrel without sweetened wine. Do not miss me Do not need me.. Do not long for my touch Do not remember me Who am I ? I am just your rehearsed dream Who am I ? I am just a metaphoric lie. Be Gone..Do not look me in the eyes and say goodbye. I was never yours You were never mine. I was you were Were you Was I? Be Gone...Do not look me in the eyes. Just musings inspired by music.

Thy pen entices us to think deeper, see farther and try to understand human nature and its vagaries my friend. Never more so mysterious than in regards to love and romance with its doubts, joys, breakups and sometimes blissful happiness. A fav...

Wow, that sounds loud and angry. But still there is a certain beauty to this that can only come form your pen. It is how you create images with words and feelings with your phrases and yes, this feels very angry because you have a talent for expressing emotions so nicely.
