Goodbye Kiss

Goodbye Kiss
Form: Raven’s Rovi Sonnet 53

How do you look through me like I’m not there
When all my eyes see are visions of you
In my mind, you are here and everywhere

And while I hold my breath, you freely breathe
My emotions confined, hidden desires
As through the crowded room I watch you weave
I serve your drinks as reality conspires

Our destinies never as one will sheathe
But if for just one moment you should care
I wish you’d share a goodbye kiss with me
Before you drift away from my heart’s view
My beauty with no time for my passion fires

Now the bar is closed with nothing to see
Except a lip-stained glass you left for me
