The Woman, After You

If so you have heard, from people around

that a new woman entered my life when you departed

 know that they did not lie

She arrived, as soon as you were not found

Without expecting or asking, she started... 

opening the door into my lonely soul

She took advantage of my sadness and nostalgia

 and today makes sure to keep me company

If you have been told that she is around 

at every moment and at all times

They did not lie

For as a shadow with no sound

she follows, closely by my side

to soften my cry

she knew you, and all there was

 for it was you who told her

And when she saw me alone 

she did not doubt in coming home

and made sure to have me

While she sits at the table to drink coffee with me

She contemplates your picture on my screen

frequently asking about you

Have you forgotten her?

She asks over and over again

Until she takes me to the room and tells me that I should

But as we tumble in bed, 

I still feel your breath racing all over my body, 

making love to me

And there I watch her smile

and tease me just like you did

Whispering in my ear to forget you

Today I finally find you

Admitting how much you miss me

then eagerly ask who the new woman is

I stare into those pretty blue eyes

And laugh at the silly dreamer you are

I point over to my heart and say

"You know her well"...

Ella es... La Soledad

Extraordinary work I mean I was reading through it and I swear it brought back memories, but I can connect with many writings

[‘Thoughts In Time..]

Hmmmm what do I say- I hope it works the way it should- what’s meant to be will be as long as it shall be- oh the sad thought that it maybe don’t- breaks my heart- beautiful🌹

Thank you kindly dear.

Suena como el fantasma femenino está tratando de protegerse a sí misma de la nueva mujer. No creo que ella quiere ponerse en el camino...

[Sir Drift & Mr. Pulse]

Pero si solo supieras, que soledad no puede ocupar tu lugar.

[A.L.]

Cualquier cosa puede tomar mi lugar si lo dejas

[Sir Drift & Mr. Pulse]

Ah, pero como ponerle un traje a una mujer que no tiene tu forma? Oh como darle un beso a labios extranjeros? Quizas no te das cuenta? Jamas se le puede borrar el color de tu amor a mi corazon.

[A.L.]

Los labios extranjeros. Sin embargo, nunca me has probado

[Sir Drift & Mr. Pulse]

Aun no, pero llegara el dia, y jamas te podras escapar de los mios.

[A.L.]

Suena encantador. Si sólo fuera una promesa

[Sir Drift & Mr. Pulse]

Lo es, y es una cual guardo muy cerca

Usted es tonto. Nadie sabe el futuro
