I'm weary of the changes in your voice
Was that a glint of sarcasm I tasted on my eardrum
Is that narcisstic tone your only safe one
Did I just make you happy
Or was that your way of saying bye?
Can I deduce from your lips if you are sane
Or must I pry open the lid on your story
Delve deeper into your imagination
Till the point I can no longer worry
Wether or not you are okay or fine
Should I invoke a loving tone
To hear if you could love me back

I wish I could open my eyes
But I am as blind as the dead


I can read this through my fingers
Can feel your sweet goodbyes
I can touch your cheek
Or play with your hair
And I can feel our hands intertwine
You playfully tell me this is the last time I'll see you
And perhaps you faded away with a smile
Today this blind man shall one last time
Sleep by your side
I can hear your breathing cutting out
And I can feel your heart quitting its beats
I wish I could have seen you once
But that might have led to perpetual greed

I shall speak at your funeral
An unprepared speech
I know you'd have found it funny
The man who's blind
Reaching for his crib
And in this end of you I beseech
Smile one last time for me
even though I can't see
I hope our farewell has brightened your passing
That you went over happily
Now this is the temporarel end
Of you and me
I hope Ill find you there one day
Waiting with open eyes
just for me
I guess this is written both in honour of my deceased grandparents who I never got toknow or love properly
And to my first girlfriend, who commited suicide a year ago in 18 days...

For those who don't understand the poem tells the tale of 2 lovers 1 is dying the other is blind , the blind man looks back at their time together with joy and reminisces his way of interacting with the woman
The woman only plays part in that her last echo her playfull personality rings through the serenity with which her husband brings his words to the audience

Rest in Peace in the sweet heavens : Leandra ,grandma's,grandpa's

I know how you feel with your grandparents. I only saw mine on my dad's side twice, and I wasn't even four both times.
This is a nice poem. ^.^
