Thinking of You

I sit

The intention to read
But then I hear that blunt sound (it''s beautiful)
And I thought: It''s been a year since I fell in love

And the sun now, like back then
Rises and sets
But now without it''s warm glow...

As jealousy, hate and bitterness are no longer friends of mine

- Such companions took months to leave

Leaving behind a colourless room

And the remaining outline of a picture that could have been
