A Dream (March, 2017)
When I arrived at Hotel Cassils
The manager hugged me tight
And poured some whiskey 'cause I was alive
The music was playing loud and beautiful
The place was full of gentlemen
and their wives
As I entered the living room
I stood next the curtains and closed my eyes
And her sweetest voice sang
I got up the stairs
And sat at one table
And then the music stopped
Cause she knew I was waiting her
And she got up the stairs and sat
Beside me in silence
She looked at her toes for an eternity
And without a word she gave a newspaper clipping
And started to sing with her eyes full of tears
While I read a note about that night seven years ago
"Billions lost as stocks crash"
"I thought God would be with me..."
"Prices are set to double"
"...When you decided to go..."
"Crash on a highway left four people killed"
"...But I felt lonely so lonely..."
"In Hotel Cassils several pilots were recruited for War"
"...Nor even god could ever know..."
But it was just me wishing
her to care or do anything for me
The music kept playing downstairs
And her voice was all I could hear
She had sang for the last seven years
To carry and feed our son
She knew she must kept singing
Because that's what strong women do
She had learned a lot about life
In all these year, she kept her pain
Under the pillow that we once shared
And I was just a strange at this point
I didn't do much when I was here
And I didn't deserve the love she loved
Even though she still loves me
