Goodbye

When we met,
Wish you hadn’t nourished me with your smiles,
your mischievous banter
and
your sloppy kisses

Wish you hadn’t gone
And leaving me
to suffer
in this unending desert of silence.

When we parted
oh how strangely did we part
Not a word !
Not a tear !!
Not a sigh !!!!

My heart and my soul were aflame
Burning me inside
The Beast in me
did try taking over,
screaming….
stop her, possess her, make her yours
But the educated, cultured coward smiled
and
waved Goodbye !
