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.
