Goodbye


from the ABC set LIFE

With my arms around you, I flow deep in the current that takes us

to the summit of passions, overflowing desires.

Like streams of delightful caresses...Burning blue fire and lust.

°

The time has come to part. I gather my bag and look around me.

Crumpled sheets on the floor, last dinner, on the table, still.

Tears run down my cheek, where your kiss remains, like a wound, untouched.

°

Can you understand my pain ? I lost you, among terrible words

of Truth, of wounded hearts, of solitude and silence. Of regret.

Never more your smile will bring the light, that my mind in darkness, needs.

°

Dark red peonies on my hair. Black braids mingled with stars.

My bare shoulder shows the bite of lust. A night blue wound.

Your teeth still in my conscience, like poisonous, poignant pearls.
