i know not how we may beA Poem by seathI know we could not stay like this forever We could not steal the light of the night and make
it ours Whenever we rush past the glowing lamplights Just to pour a handful of fading smiles in our eyes
I know how the doubt tastes at the tip of your
tongue I had a good sniff among your beige beliefs for
bliss You seem to be so sturdy for love, absurd, ironic
love! (Is that a kiss that I miss or a stress with a
kiss?)
Never mind the kisses and the misses and embrace Soon enough I’ll be a shadow under the two of you Soon enough we’ll stand like strangers on a shed We’ll shed tears not for our previous intimate
selves. …. If I were this distant star to our frail naked eyes I’d turn my hue from a dull blue to a biting black, For me to swallow everything in a deafening blast Then I would be with you!------ I’m through, True. . …. I know we could not stay like this forever. I know how the thought tastes as I skip through
your tongue. I suppose we’ll stand like strangers on a familiar
street. And never will shed a tear for our precious ole
dear self.
