PRACTICAL ADVICE
Close your eyes
Fast forward
All the stolen kisses
All the times you missed him
All that you could have
written on a piece of paper
His warm body
That you’ll never hold again
For you have never actually
done it.
Take the bottle of brandy
The one you drowned all your dreams in
Early,
In the foggy mornings,
With no sorrows
But with a little bit of forgetfulness
That you can use next summer,
Under the Sun,
When your retina
And your soul have no more stains
You must keep quiet!
You must definitely be quiet!
Truths cannot be uttered!
Cause silence is necessary
so no one can hear
how Love is killed.
Poignant. Nice lines, Rita. I like this one just like it is.
