DAY 2...2/30- Goodbye.

New Orleans,

This is my goodbye.

I was touched by you
Your accent had me dancing at the formation of the simplest words.
You made complexity seem useless.
Lilac ruby red lips pressed against the softest skin to heaven’s touch
The betrayal of a kiss has never felt so sweet
You
With your road running lies
Love is better left lost
Like the faces in barely painted portraits
So don’t you look for me in the crowds
I’m better left missing
Forced my soul to feed you the little bit of trust I had left
For the men like you
Never thought the day would come that I would heard your name and men like you
Sculpted together so perfectly
Baby,
Forever will never be able to greet us collectively
There will forever only be a you and a me
Scrubbed the essence of us from the tips of my lips
Forbidding them of ever forming the word we
In reference to you and me
Washed the trail of anger and discontent that lied heavy around my eyes
With salt water tears
How dare you ask me about how I’m feeling now
Boy
My feelings meant nothing to you then
So please
its too late to live in the present moment now
You have not only betrayed me,
But mother earth too.
She use to look up to you.
But its over now,
So I guess its goodbye until the day we meet again
In our next lifetime.

Signed,

DC

ps.
My main purpose was to help you grow as a man.
Our friendship was 2nd.
