Sorrow

Category: Poem

I tried to erase the memories
Of days with you and days with me
Something holds on when the will is gone
And the memories linger on

Be strong and don’t cry
Even if you have a reason
Hold your breath and carry on
There’ll be another season

Fret if you can
Alone and with the lights off
Don’t push your sorrow under the door
It has a key anyway

Change your address
If that will help you sleep
It won’t matter much
Sorrow knows where you live

Try to sleep when it all fades
I know you can’t
The trembling comes
And the fear too in waves

Rest well and contemplate
Insurrection of the will
Another name for fate
Passion does not cross that line

Me? I don’t sleep anyway…
