Don’t know when<\/p>\n\n\n\n
did we become strangers?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
or why<\/p>\n\n\n\n
or how?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
All that is registered in my clouded memory<\/p>\n\n\n\n
is the smile whithered, <\/p>\n\n\n\n
the door shut,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
and the memory of closeness<\/p>\n\n\n\n
faded into the seven clouds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Looking at the river,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
running in slow motion,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
taking with it particles of unspoken words.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Did you know,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
the southern winds ripped off<\/p>\n\n\n\n
every line I wrote for you <\/p>\n\n\n\n
in anger,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
in kindness and in desperation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Now, we are so far away that the wind<\/p>\n\n\n\n
cannot whisper our story <\/p>\n\n\n\n
in time you reach your door<\/p>\n\n\n\n
and close it to the words<\/p>\n\n\n\n
which have traveled the seven seas<\/p>\n\n\n\n
to reach you for the last time..<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
