Stardust Fadingby Carmen RuggeroWhatever made me think... I don’t know, was I even thinking? thinking... The night fresh, young as the dreams the dreams... we dreamed like verses... verses... freshly spoken; not yet touched by the new day... new day... let’s dance, you said, follow my steps steps... steps... and I followed in semidarkness we danced... danced... to Hoagy’s tune. We’ll have a whiskey you said, and I was thirsty... I was thirsty... what was I thinking? thinking... I wonder... as I see the door close behind you... behind you... and all that echoes in my mind... my mind... is a memory... of us, and a dream and that night... vanishing like stardust... stardust... fading... fading... |
