“Hurt once and for all into silence…”
Leonard Cohen
You came to me the other night,
and smiled a smile that lingered
in my memory all day,
but the currawong and the sun’s song
were the music on my way.
someday I will speak
but not right now
not yet
I don’t know what I’d say
I waited for you again last night,
your eyes the stars in my eyes
as I watched the moon ascend,
but to be redeemed it has to seem
as if broken hearts can mend.
someday I will speak
but not today
not now
I have no love to send
Pavlos Andronikos
