as it comes... it will go...
if asked say not what you really think or thought
for times come so quickly and knowledge fades so fast
all it takes is a head turn or gulp and it is all gone seems alien
what you gathered so carefully with great fuss and bother
drifts away without even a glimpse back or a simple wave...
goodbye...
love ones... lovers... great sounds... tastes... temptations
ways of thinking, lusting, finding, groping, sleeping, dreaming
staying awake... dancing laughing... acting the fool... going silent
writing down... looking up... taking sides... letting out... taking in
removing the leftover... overlooking the obvious...
fighting wanting, remembering and forgetting all so you can say
hello...
