"I saw you with her"

There was someone at your door

a lady in her white face

but she didn't knock

maybe she couldn't

so you never knew that she was there.

she's clenching tightly her fist

and for me,

it seems regret.

And with a careful sob

she made a silent cry

but it was never enough

for her to be heard by you

maybe because it was raining today

the storm seems to hide her

like a beautiful secret

but for me

I want him to know that she was there

I wanted to see what fear she's trying to overcome

or what kind of a woman is she

when in front of the man inside the house.

"you who live there

is she the one who left you

or

are you the one who left her?

maybe both of you run away

what kind of love

did you two have?

that you were both inside of a stormy house

but you two were different

The woman with you

broke down in front of sadness

but you,

you begged in front where the heart of you

found something beautiful

The woman with you

seems to know what fear she's holding on

but you,

you were like a lost child not knowing what scares you

and it still scares you

both of you

an existence

one outside

one inside

and you were both drowning

and both of you

cannot be saved"

I stepped out in my garden

behind of my wooden fences

I need a stone

that can reach you

and there it lies

a small one

I will hold this in my frail fingers

like my death was chasing

having one last chance

let it reach to you.

and

it

did.

.......................

You are with her

in your eyes

you speak so many

and yet you stand firm

but for a moment

when the woman sinks her head

your shoulder's move a little

as if someone was squeezing you tight

with a desperate embrace

and I see you choking

one by one

your walls were leaving you

you put the back of your arm to your face

not to attempt to hide,

only searching for your own self

in the midst of your sadness.

The woman's back

is all I could see

it was moving

closer and closer towards me

but she never reaches me

and all I could see

was your eyes

following the running footsteps

of someone who left you behind.

You stayed with her...

 until she's out of sight.
