Black Stripes of Heartbreak

Please, remember me and think about me Even in your days with another me For we know our love was not meant to be At least I know, you do not have to agree I remember you, sitting under the tree Which bore apples as children, could be we Too, that would have had the same fate as she Tangled up in each other’s roots, you see But not being amorous, by the sea With rolling tides, squashed by lover feet, plea To end all the suffering, be set free From invisible chains, holding me three One on heart so change you never will see One on mind, to keep logic from its flee And one on legs, to keep legs from their flee Go on, you took your fabled golden key And unlocked me, oh, why’d you unlock me So my feelings spill faster than a bee Please, remember me and think about me Even in your days with another me

I had to read this twice, well, I wanted to read it twice. It is deep and emotive without being obvious; I love the meaning that you meant and the creative way you revealed it. Congrats on your placement ... CayCay
