Yellow Flower in the Spring

I think I saw you

in the middle of the street.

You were panting

as you sing 

a song!

The sun went down

and

then you were gone.

So soon,

you were gone. 

Gone. 

I never got to know if there was ever a song.


I think I heard

your voice

coming out of the water.

You were

shaped by so many evils,

denial and fear.

Your veins-

vividly showing-

coming out of your skin. The waves,

they danced, 

and you were soon gone. 

Again. Gone.

Whether the ocean took you away or not, 

I would never know.


I think I tasted your lips

one morning.

Your lips

which tasted like coffee.

Your lips.

Your lips- 

like cold iron- which tasted like 

a hot soup

only with plasma as the stock.

Blood,

and images of your body.

I knew I already ruined them.


I think I smelled your perfume, 

which I used to love.

Ever since.

Your manly smell,

almost made me dizzy. 

All the time.

But I found out 

that it was just my sheets!

Because you were gone.

Right?


I think I felt your touch

as I

was sleeping last night.

Alone. 

You went on

touching my hair,

my face.

You even whispered through the darkness,

in my ears you whispered.

But how?

How is that possible

if I already killed you

with my own hands?

In the middle of the night,

your blood-

they spurred out-

your shouts- 

drowning through the wind.

And you were just a yellow flower

in the spring.


Oranges are sins

that I never meant to commit.

Spiderweb is tangled up with me now

I never meant to cause trouble.

But I should be allowed to do that-

I should be allowed to kill you-

so I wouldn't have to feel

the pain

you've been causing me

for so long.

In my memories...
