Adieu -- To Love!!

Baby, can you hear my soul
in silent communication with yours?
Baby, can you hear my words
express an even deeper emotion?
Baby, do you just hear me
or do you really listen to a mate trivializing?
Yet there's an underlying wish to be listened to
Baby I always hear you
Your call for attention
Your need for sharing
Your sweet loving gentle tones
So baby, have we really fine-tuned to each other?

Yes, baby I'm tuned to your dumb ass ramblings
That get me into chuckles n splits
Your humor n laughter warms my heart
n spring cleans the cobwebs
that sometimes unwillingly appear
But baby, from day one
I've seen you beyond that facade
I've really seen you
devoid of narcissism n egoistic grandeur
I love that real person
But baby, I also see intense moments
of narcissistic indulgence
Baby, do you want me
to behold the physicality n look in awe
or do you want to go past it?
I have loved the real you
Baby, do we need to stop here
so in those narcissistic indulgent moments
you can feast your eyes
on ethereal gorgeous physical beauty?
Baby our visions are converse
So baby, can you see us moving on ahead?

Baby can you see
a heart reaching out to yours?
Baby do you really see me
or do physicalities blind you?
Baby have you really seen me
or are you still looking at the external?
There's a yearning, baby
S'times for a glance,
a look of admiration,
a compliment that stems from your soul to mine
or are we just superfluous?
Baby, do I really see you?
Yes, I really do
Your handsome great looks


Baby, do you feel
the solace n comfort in each others arms?
Baby, do you feel
the intensity n passion of our togetherness
Or is it just fizz
that'll evaporate into nothingness
Baby, do you feel
the yearning when we're apart?
Or do you feel liberated?

Baby, its been years of togetherness
But in retro,
It seems like a lifetime
You've brought joy, happiness, love, laughter, dance, passion into my life
I've lived every moment to the fullest with you
I've had doubts, recriminations, shed tears
And verbally battled n battered you at times
But I've lived through it all

Baby, you've been my friend,
my love, my soulmate, my companion
It's been a wonderful roller coaster ride
Where we've ranted n raved at the bends
But baby, we have issues
that loom large like gigantic waves
Do we ignore them
or when they appear, whip up our surfboards
n skim above them?
Someday those waves may pull us down
N drown us destroying our precious love
Baby, do you want to ride the waves
or tame their ferocity?
Baby I love the real you
but the narcissist I cannot indulge
I need you to understand n comprehend the unspoken
Baby, a million thanks
for bringing me the beauty n simplicity
of your love n friendship

"Where do we go from here, baby?"
Is a question I ask you
My love is unconditional n everlasting

Baby, you strung me along
with a song n a promise
Today I stand at the crossroads
N realize I was so so wrong about your love

Adieu... my love... for your love for me has long been gone!!
