how can someone be so vile <br />to leave someone as good <br />and as beautiful as you? <br /> <br />try to remember if you have met <br />that someone even once <br /> <br />where and when and how? <br />and why? <br /> <br />why must he leave someone as <br />good and as beautiful <br />and as truthful <br />as you? <br /> <br />unless, it was you who left him <br />because he never showed up <br />even as a shadow. <br /> <br />yes, when someone loves <br />unrequited, in fact, <br />i always remember that <br /> red rose for Emily beside <br />the lover's skull. <br /> <br />The town is so silent <br />that i hear the fall of a leaf <br />on a grass so soft and yet <br />so indifferent.<br /><br />RIC S.
