eyes so cold, i’ve never seen
once my queen, never again,
sweet heaven seemed so close
the most pain i’ve ever had
now glad to be rid of the lies
schock and surprise, then numb
i was so dumb–so blind
sight, hind, so clear
the sheer comedy of it all
now tall, walking forward
toward greener settings
i’m betting life is beautiful
the pull of fate undeniable
unreliable people unescapable
unattainable dreams abound
a crown of thorns for me
gleeful suffering greets
meeting my fate
it awaits patiently
cyclically the ups and downs
around, around it goes,
the throes of passion
fashioned happiness then disaster
faster towards the end
bending towards oblivion.

GOODBYE
