Tick-Tock of the Heart

To the Muse:
How are you my love?
Have you slept well?
Did you cry last night?
Remember that last goodbye--
When you said goodnight
And I turned around with a
Heavy heart.
Choking on the emotions
I was trying to deny.


To the Guardian:
How are you my love?
Have you slept well?
Did you smile last night?
Amidst the bright and neon lights;
The music, the rhythm,
The endless, tempting melody
Of the crowd, of the lovelies
As I remember those times
We spent alone,
Together.
Too short time together.

Nevertheless, I do

You made me smile
The first time we said 'hi'.
I could barely contain
The warmth spreading
In my heart.
Entangled, I can't
Say goodbye.


You made me cry
When you pushed me
Away, that night.
Did you think
I would smile
And let go;
Say goodbye?
