Achiilles and Tortoise
I’d rather cry, but of course
My voice had suddenly gone
You’ve changed today your course
Now I’m here alone
Playing solitaires and stuff
Winning most of the games
Hearing your silence is tough
It puts me to terrible shame
But finally you took pity
For poor me, my love
Your letter was deep and witty
It came out like a grieving laugh
"I never ignore you at purpose"
There’s always a reason, when you
Become an Achilles, and tortoise
Is me, under skies so blue
We're running the same beaten track
Leaving our trails behind
You have no time to look back
So am I, love, so am I..
