Into infinite space

A little poem I wrote when I returned home, drunk, after a night wasted on chasing a love. In vain.

Staring beyond the stars

Into infinite space

Trying to recall

Your smile, your face

That first look

At that crowded place

How you said hello

And I couldn't make phrase

I just stood there

Numbened by your gaze

Suddenly you were gone

Left without a trace

I put on my jacket

To take up the chase

Went out alone

Into the nightly haze

And wandered around

In a freezing maze

Just to discover

We had gone different ways

And that I already

Had lost the race

Now I'm staring beyond the stars

Into infinite space

Trying to repress

What I cannot erase
