Goodbye My Love! (Au Revoir Mon Cheri Ami)!
The wind rustle the withered leaves
beneath my wearied little feet ,
as I thread along the forlorn path.
I clasp my arms around my chest
and allow me a little bit of luxury.
Shielded from the mid-day heat,
I drift into total oblivion.
I soar into a haven of troubled
thoughts and indulge myself
in a moment of blind torment.
I let my memories summon
the many lies and deceit
as teardrops in droplets of rain
flood my swollen unseeing eyes.
I look to the sky for answers
and beheld the arched rainbow ,
splashed in sombre colours ,
and the moon bereaved of
it's divine lustre.
In a solemn bond with nature ,
I try to figure out
why the stars stopped its twinkle ,
why the cool whispers of the night ,
is now the tactless litter that hurts.
How did it all go awry?
The undying love confessed in candour,
the vows made in radiant sunlight ,
and the secret silent looks
that melted a a longing heart.
Where did it all go amiss?
The touch that teased with affection,
the dimpled smiles with giddy effects ,
and the kiss which gave solace
to my thirsting soul.
Why did you leave me hurting?
With the betrayal of your lips
and the Fury of a heartless stab?
Why did you leave me in fragments
battered, beaten, broken?
Why did you squeeze this hard
to drain me of the colours of life?
Why must I henceforth live with
the pain, the groan, the agony
of loosing my complete self,
and the dawning bleakness
of the dark and endless night?
As I bleed, goodbye I must say
and farewell must I bid you.
Au Revoir Mon Cheri Ami!
Goodbye my Love.
Thank you for stopping by my neighbourhood.
