Nothing to do with the drabble topic. A villanelle.
whatever
If you should see me on that dark highway
Feel free to slap some life into my face:
whisper the words my soul demands I say.
I love you. Wait, what's that? Too bad, you say;
You're just the rainbow I'm condemned to chase
If you should see me on that dark highway?
This history, this pointless game we play
Mementos of my only shot at grace
Whisper the words my soul demands I say.
I'd give the world, give anything, to stay
Rescind goodbye: please let me state my case
If you should see me on that dark highway.
So I'll keep walking, walk until I'm grey
I've lost the one thing no one can replace
Whisper the words my soul demands I say.
Ah, well - you never loved me anyway
So there's the truth, grafittied at the base
If you should see me on that dark highway
Whisper the words my soul demands I say....
