Today you told me you were leaving was pushed away left to hold onto nothing spent your last hours wrapped in deep thought whilst I spent my hours watching afar though preying you didn’t notice. Whispers from afar could be heard distant yet close across the room you stood alone. mumbling to yourself near the window watching your reflection within the glass. Rain from outside shattered the silence I looked passed you into the reflection wondered were those real tears or raindrops outside rolling down your cheeks. Attention was drawn to my own thoughts aged memories from our past began to play pictures, images, created tapestry of my mind. Never noticed your gaze leave the window eyes now watching me waiting for a chance then you moved almost tiptoed to the door making no sound nor speaking no words. I remained trapped in a thousand dreams shifting from memory to memory where you and me were always together. A rose pressed against my face the fresh aroma of romance upon my lips memories had taken me back to the place where we joined as one. That night I asked you to marry me thought that meant we’d be together always you said yes and we took those vow’s yet broke my trust slept around instead of been with me on our wedding night you were with someone else as I laid alone in bed. The memories fade back into the room noticing now im alone I walked to the door closing memories within still all that remained was a sliver-gold ring. |

Love is the strangest animal. Wild or tame, it still needs to be leashed... don't worry friend, you will love and be loved again!  |

Dear Lee, this poem contains beautiful, melancholic images. A very intense write, dreamlike. Love especially the rain-tear association. Love, Margherita |
