a goodbye kiss to my maudlin afternoons
>> 6.10.08
I remember that night
.
When your head was on my toes
.
And I could feel the warmth of your breathing through the layers
.
of my very skin.
.
Was that our last adieu?
.
Or were you beseeching me back?
.
Only the sand could tell.
.
.
I strummed the guitar beneath my yellow polka dots bed sheet
.
What were we 213 days ago?
.
And what have become of us now?
.
But all I heard was a broken resonance.
.
(When will my fingers ever learn to play with those wound
.
strings?)
.
.
Sorry.
.
For the noise I created.
.
*for the guy who confused me about LOVE.
