I Can'T Give Your Life a Meaning If Mine Is Meaningless

Last week you broke the silence With fury and vigour you shouted on the line "I am weary of this trek" "The climb is far too steep for me" "It is ever slippery" "And you in the city .. this is really wild" "All this is meaningless" Now there is an endless ring in my head because you pressed the red button We cant talk any more We cant laugh together My smile can no longer trigger a tremour in your voice on the other end You cut the link Solid fondness and curiosity of future Is grim and dead now You don't care for explanations It is not what you need I know you need a pink heart that peels off like petals of a flower revealing tenderness everyday and love every day and sweetness everyday and warmth everyday Peeling off to give more meaning to your life Well I tried and in this quest We lost touch because I lost myself after I lost my petals in a wild dance with you you we're as vigorous as a pig before I knew it, all petals were gone filaments withered the stamen crashed I can no longer feed your sweet style, the life you desire everyday It is a disaster I know But I must admit that our journey has ended I can't give you love and tenderness and sweetness and warmth I cant give your life a meaning if mine is meaningless
