REWIND/REMIND

The Quest of a Pretty Mind and its Forgetful Heart

very loud indeed

with eyes you whisper

with heart you shout

with touch you say

with kisses you make your mind

//

saying this to the deepest of me

//

I LOVE YOU

the best inn

i have booked my stay

in your heart

for 365 days

times forever

//

i have paid in advance

with a transfer of my loyalty

delivered by affection and commitment

with no further debt of doubts

//

it has been confirmed

with you as the stamp

and your love on top as the signature

//

i’m glad i’ve made my stay

a begger

mom, may i please dye my hair blue?

you raise me to be honest

i just want to sync the color with my heart

deep blue

//

he’s leaving me for 10 days

up in the mountain

sometimes down at the valley

mostly there at nowhere i don’t understand

//

mom, may i please be excused?

i have enough dinner

i’ll wash my plate later

i need to check my heart

//

he’s not answering my calls

just now

this morning

even last night

//

mom, may i please be understood?

i need some time alone

feeling sick, miserable and lonely

fighting with time, space and suspicion

//

he loves me

and i love him dearly

all we want is to be married

in 10 days after his arrival

deceitful black blanket

i don’t want to see you as much

baby, you’re hurting me

you’re taking my pride away

and i was never that proud

//

you take me only for the ride

and i was a fool

to let myself down

giving you the chance
