you like it <br />when it is not yet finished <br /> <br />life like <br />like life perhaps you like it before it ends <br /> <br />perhaps at the middle when you smile <br />and then you stop it short <br />when the cold air comes to touch your brows <br /> <br />you like an unfinished journey <br />before you reach a certain home of old pictures <br /> <br />i paint a path and you like it when it is just near a river <br />which we are about to cross <br /> <br />you like it when i touch your lips <br />and then i leave without letting you taste the kiss <br /> <br />i understand how painful endings are <br />like departures <br /> <br />you like an unfinished business <br />perhaps because you like someone to come back to you <br />and give you <br />forever.<br /><br />RIC S.
