Bisou Bisou

a packed bag
(or semi packed, if we consider the perfumes on the desk)

going to sleep in a different room—
going to sleep in a different country—

my eyelids won’t close, yet.
buzzing sounds through my thumbs.
the cat won’t understand, there is static in his brain.
I understand, though. 
I will never see her again.

This is a beautiful poem. According to me it talks about the hardships one experiences after an end of a relationship. Keep up the good work!!
