One Day
One day I will surely be gone
And I will leave no trace
I will definitely lay hold of
The memory of my weary face
I will bring everything that I can
Including all my favorite books
The scent that gives me melting looks
The pens, pencils and paper
That I utilized to write our future.
I will not leave anything
The blanket we used to cuddle
The coffee cups we used to sip on
The dishes we used to eat--in a boodle
I will not leave my tears
I will bring along all these traces
Including this body that you love to caress
And this fragrant hair you used to play with
One day when I will be gone
I will not leave a sign
I hope you will understand, man
After I die, you will be no longer mine.
