Then you can tell me goodbye...

Beautiful Joss Stone song was my muse.

"Please sweeten my coffee with a morning kiss.  Joss Stone."

Then you can tell me goodbye...

Pretty lady with the saddest eyes, always found me on a Friday night in Austin, Texas.

She would sit with me and she would hold my hands. She would whisper to me.

You survive another war and I prayed for you.

I would tell her. Patricia, pretty Patricia. Are you okay? Her lonely eyes would try to seek 

kindness in my eyes. She smiled and she laughed at my words. She told me. I wrote us, a poem.

Can I read the poem to you? I told her please do.

"A stranger kiss, I want.

I want a slow dance near the Austin River with a million star above us 

and I want us to roam into the desert and count the stars above us.

I want us to drink the sweet wine and celebrate being together.

I want to make you smile and I want you to make me smile.

I want more easy days and us. To become friends, not strangers.

I adore the stranger kiss, you have given me often in the five years,

we had planted memories. I know kisses can be dangerous and so sweet.

Maybe you should ask for more?

Dear soldier, dear poet.

Then you can tell me goodbye when the light of day appeared, if you want.

And if you need to stay with me. Please do."

I embraced her and I kissed her forehead, I kissed her face-cheeks and her neck.

I told her. We have never been strangers. Just two Gypsies hearts seeking peace and calm.

If you want dear Patricia. I will stay and I want you to smile again.

She gave me a hundred kisses and she whispered.

Maybe love can win dear poet?

Goodby is nothing more than a brief separation. It is not the time appart that is important but the time togeather than means something. I loved the line:
"I adore the stranger kiss, you have given me often in the five years,

Stranger kiss sunc an wonderful expression of new passion.

Your poem is a beautiful and touching tribute to the power of love and human connection. You use vivid and evocative language to convey the sense of longing and desire that comes from being separated from someone you care about deeply.

Your poem seems to suggest that love is a force that can transcend time and space, and that it has the power to bring us together even when we are apart. It's a reminder that even in our darkest moments, we can find hope and comfort in the love of those around us.

I believe we can Bhuyanshi. Love is life, life is love. Thank you for reading and the comment.

There is always a line or two in your poetry that leaps from the page; in this case it is: I want to make you smile and I want you to make me smile
I want more easy days and us.
