New Pictures
New pictures on my wall
That you’ll never see.
No longer coming around
To be with me.
Only you can make them colorful.
So they will stay pale,
Beautiful in their antiquity
From the time when we cared.
From afar - peaceful.
Inside - lonely and cold.
An unknown future
That’s for the best I’ve been told.
I will never hold your hand
While explaining why they move me.
Never kiss you afterwards
When you finally see
This time it’s for real.
Unrealistic hope has died.
Door will be locked
As we say “goodbye.”
