Analysis of goodbye

nina 2002 (Paraguay)



and without saying goodbye you left.
you plunged into a dead end well.
you jumped into an endless ravine.

you were absorbed by the darkness.
the shadow grabbed your hand,
and far away you have gone

you left me standing,
all alone,
yearning one day to meet you again.
