VILLAGE CAFÉ
A dark room with dim lights
Away from all confusion, away from all fights…
With the cigarette pressed between my fingers….
Smoking away in ease money that’s hers….
She took her coat and quietly left…
Leavin a smile on my face, the invaluable gift…
She said everything will be okay soon…
If u see it all dark n dull over here…
come out with me into the noon….
Life for you has so much to offer out there…
I told her gimme time…
I told her gimme space…
My life yet doesn have any reason or rhym…
I am for some time out of the rat race…
Tm want to sit here n sulk whole day…
Still want to understand wat happened yesterday…
Perhaps I was too slow for her….
But she wanted me to move ahead….
She taught me never to say never…
But I was still not ready to leave the bed…
Life fucked me damn hard this time….
But its not gonna be this way forever
I took good lessons from life this time…
And I say this as I end today this endeavor…
All I asked once before she left…
Did you ever love me dearest???
She smiled again n plainly said….
I thought you understood me the best…
The last as I can recall….
The touch of her lips on mine…
And that tear in her eye which did not fall….

I like this one the best ......its surreal......i like the way you have depicted the space...and its effect...and that ultimate feeling of sloth borne out of disdain.
