As we go along


I'm writing you pure words,
I'll erase all the crossings-out,
and on that sheet of paper,
I'm about
to circle your mistakes
and rub them all out,
as we go along..

It's not a work of literature,
nor some lyrics of a song.
It's just a reading play,
few stolen moments flying away,
as we go along..

And when my message arrives,
make sure you read between the lines..
You'll see that
with almost nothing at all,
we can go very far...
Just knock on my window and
I'll open the door..


I'm not really sure,
whether you may endure..
As, from your eyes, a splash could gush,
while you read me in a hush,
as we go along..

And if my message comes at time,
with almost nothing at all,
we can go very far...
For a while, you'd be mine..
And
with your hands
you'd lower my neckline
unknot my ribbons and my bands
as we go along..


And
with our hands,
we'll draw all the plans,
to get inside each other's lands,
as we go along..

I'm writing you distilled words,
I've erased all the crossings-out,
and on that sheet of paper,
I've rubbed out my own faults,
as we go along...

Gar a dit…

I'd hit the windows
with my fists, with my knees
and i'd leave
my blood soaking the shards
drawing on the ground
my madness, my tears.

but i won't
i'm such a coward
hiding in the darkness
staring through the window
at your ribbons, at your knots
at the blossoms your fingers blow.

Mayday a dit…

Voici un échange qui promet d'être étincelant!
Ce texte étant une sorte d'éloge aux échanges épistolaires, il n'y a pas besoin de casser un carreau pour pénétrer. Il suffit parfois d'un petit toc toc (un poke?)pour que l'alchimie agisse et que toutes les portes s'ouvrent :)
