Without YOU

Sunday, 31 May 2009

Love... tell me,
Why do your candles light the longest?
Your guitar keeps weeping in me ...
I've seen you bleeding again.
And I realise once more how meaningless
all this is.
Seen your inner tears again.
And my impossibility to take you back home,
Again.
Saw you alive again, last night.
Sweet Dreams ...
Back you were and off you went, so quickly-
As usual.
I see you suffering again.
And how my feebleness grows with it
Everything recoils...
If I had done this or that;
or more- much more.
If I had touched your hands
and feet even more..
If I had told you much more often
If only god had existed...
I see your desperation again
with my eyes in fire-
No one can put that out!
Your guitar weeps in me.
And all my present displeasures
and failures turn out to be
so extremely ridiculous!
All this loneliness of mine
Should I thank the Beyond for it?
I guess so- But still cannot forgive Life
for letting you go. Never will I!
Never will I concieve why
This nightmare
had to shake our lives-
Out of the blue!
Still your guitar weeps
Yes, I know.
Have to wake up every single day
and carry on
and be thankful for all I have
Having- though without you, Love.

JULY 5th
Eleven months ago,
here you were
Eleven-month absence,
Continuous presence.
It feels great to know
that sooner or later
we'll meet again,
there,
where you've gone in advance.
The best of your bests, for you today....
The song they must have written for you
For I'm sure
No one has ever listened to
or looked up to a tune
as much as YOU have done to this one.
Deep deep Pepe.......................YES... this IS Music.
