Adieu

With a gentle kiss
he bid her adieu
walked along he was late
there was no time

Time had to wait
for the material conquests
they were what mattered now

He had reached for his daily butchery
slowly he killed each towering grey
As he moved each of his fingers
he convinced each thought
each motion was just
each swing was right
there was no right or wrong only forward

He toiled till his forearms couldnt bear the ache
he stopped looked around and saw with the same stoned look, what was..
As he walked back all he could think was about her,
her scent seemed to still linger
her touch still on his arms
her silken hair leaning on his shoulder as he held her

Each tired step took him home
where he rested for this ordeal
the glass house showed all those peering eyes
that looked in darkness or light
those eyes lead him to many actions
those eyes lead him to norm and mediocrity
those eyes lead him away ..
From him

He woke with a pain
a daze that didn`t lift
a blur that didn`t clear
He walked straight to the slaughtery
He couldn`t meet her today for there was no time
time could not wait today


Towering Grey`s fell
The mind now was a norm
actions had mediocrity where they didn`t think
the eyes saw no difference

As he walked away
her scent seemed distant
her touch was lost with the scathing rain
her silken hair had been blown away..

Time did not wait..

He ran back blinded through the darkness
searching for her..
Longing for that laughter
Longing for that touch
Longing for that innocence

He ran.. he ran till his sole bled
the world didn`t seem the same
he didn`t know the way
with a stumble he fell in the wet gravel

Bruisen, on his knees
he screamed in pain
he screamed in angst
he screamed in love

how was he to know
that evening he had bid adieu to life?.


ADIEU to Life.
