Thoughts overflow in my mind and heart,Then come the twist of fate Making a whole poem or just a part.On the morning I was late I crumple thousand papers,I met you once more I don't know why my heart waivers.What did you come back for? Ideas keep flowing over, But nothing comes out of my mind that's sober.I've got another man waiting for me Then I tried closing my eyes,At home, where I live with him Tried to sort the truth from the lies.By now, I cannot be free I took a breath and put them in silence,If I leave him, his world will turn dim The voices that flood my mind like sirens. I let go of my pen for a moment.You're seconds, hours, years too late At the blank sheet, I stare.I thought there's nothing for me to wait Waiting to be filled with joy or lament,Goodbye means end of everything The sheet laid so empty and bare.But, you said it's a promise of something I pick the pen up and started writing, A word, or just anything.Goodbye for you is a promise Then it occurred to me that rhymes kept coming,A promise to meet once again Making a part, a whole being.Promise to be reunited with a tender kissBut, having to be away 'til then.
