Addio

He's still there
among the junk, hope gathers
but then suddenly I
just goodbye, only goodbye
those last glances and inside me, muffled sounds, muffled sounds
our blurry image behind me
I recalled the moments, the lived seconds
his masculine gaze
absently, he looked at other women
seeking new shapes
Now outside, it’s not raining anymore
but the pavement is still wet and can reflect me a bit
so it will tell me why I said
goodbye, I wanted it
that I was searching for happiness, tying him to me
more and more tying him
so he told me I was taking his air and
putting limits on him, he asked for freedom
what could I say if not
goodbye, only goodbye
those last glances and inside me, muffled sounds, muffled sounds
