You've done it

You've done it

Brother

Now you're free

Decades of poems

Full nights of films

The French ones

That we discussed

The one you pointed

To me

Doing efforts

In your accent

Goodman

Loyal lieutenant

We shared

Poetry events

Also

Desperation 

The same

I told you

My dull stories

You said yours

I gave you some lifts

You offered me tips

Then something happened

Strangled

By this world

We lost the plot

You mowed the lawn

I got estranged

You unloaded luggage

I vanished

As for rimes

It went distorted

Like the time

We couldn't hold

There's a music

That plays

In a sombre corner

Of my soul

But also

There is

Your laugh

Over the absurd.

  • I hope all will be well, so many scars, so much pain, but everybody will die.
    To think that one must wait for the death of a friend before understanding what is lost forever.

    • Thanks for your contribution. Perhaps someone should do the same for HL.

    • Merci à vous. Nous connûmes de grands moments. Et puis, les temps devinrent impitoyables avec les poètes. R.I.P.
