Gleaming Loneliness

for no reason
for the moment
I vanish
into the dusk
out of the light
night's night falls upon me

I'm full of decoration
and eloquent enough
no one notices me go inside
conversation rises
even though I'm underneath it

for participation
I speak of a sweet story
of when my love went black
and haunted me with the burden of memory
this suddenly became a song
full of nostalgia and scruple
it all seemed theatrical
in front of a parade of names
I'm wandering like a bird
in search of you
my accurate yet quick words
let me wear a clever coat
you can never imagine how far i will go
to look at you again
my dreamy winds blow
I arrive just in time
no one notices
