Written as a song
on the ivory piano tiles
That I think are too beautiful
for my shabby eyes

Tribute for him
Who has had my heart
and returned it to me
In a million tiny pieces

Little by little

You found your way in
And just
Sitting there,
Staying,
Refusing to leave
But I can't hold on,
having you just come -
and leave
So suddenly.

Little by little

You crept on to me
And just
leave me here Standing,
Trying to solve all your
Riddles

You can
Smile all you want,
Laugh all you need
But then
Leave me standing here.

I'm trying to live every moment,

Not just for your own amusement.

Was all that I felt - just illusions?

Please stop
playing with my emotions.

No matter;
For you
For me
For all we could be

It's not there,
Nothing's there

It's all - it's just me

I knew,
Upon

Seeing you gone.
