Poem Title:
Poem
Do not turn back and think of me When you can't physically touch me When you still haven't found your lonely words to show me the many ways that you have loved me (if you ever did ) Let me get lost ,not to be found Let me be gone, carried away like a life-boat at sea that never made it to the shore Let me be forgotten,never to be remembered Let the running tide choke me Let it take my breath before I can breathe to inhale salt air, and walk again on scorching sands Let it take my breath before hallucations take over and make me smell the wafting scents of cocounut, our shared ice -cream , and sun -soaked years. May total eclipse come soon to cover this night and many nights still yet to follow So these eyes would not seek your eyes Oh, those eyes ,a book of thousand stars Glistening stars ,falling stars,wishing stars that keep on fading , fading into nothingness Nothingness that steals the joy of many rainbows Rainbows that once splashed against our lighthouse, their pastel hues on sepia paths. Do not turn back , do not look back and think of me It is too late to come , it is too late to hold my hand And if the memory remains ,make new beginnings So that tomorrow , you will not fail to lock our history So you will succeed to seperate the living from the dead. Fiction poem inspired by a Bruno Mars' song - 'When I was your man '
