Fluttering chestnut eyes



 
Your Baby-faced, Creole-brown chestnut eyes are no longer a nickname. I should be happy and satisfied that your life was able to find the right direction. Your feigned happiness - which was secretly and faithfully yours, could not be reconciled with your being hidden from everyone, like a winner-loser theater performance!

You were once an angel in my eyes! Remember this! It was for you that the Cyclops one-eyed Sun rose from his bed, and for you he bled into the twilight with heroic vulnerability. "Now, almost everything around me is being destroyed at a deliberately accelerating pace!" While the passing away can only be a slow-motion death, because your truth-telling, folded emotions played on the strings of your golden heart beating on fraud and that's why you were structured to be cheated and liars!

But you also lied to yourself without admitting it! You didn't change your maiden name on purpose, even though there were quite a few others in your life who you exploited or led on in the same deceptive and seductive way. Now - you can't even believe it yourself - you are standing in one place, stumbling in the forgettable showcase of your hard-earned minutes of success. An attractive bouquet of flowers, a standing ovation, and expensive pampering gifts make up for every evening served. "But this swindler of haramia, tell me when was the last time you really cried for yourself?"

I wonder when was the last time you defiantly looked with your wolf-eyed and judgmental dressing-up mirror, since not long ago you said yourself, in a popular interview that received thousands of likes, that you are afraid of Janusz-faces! When was the last time you invited your long-neglected poet, your man in love, for a long, meaningful conversation, so that the unfortunate person could feel that no matter how fateful and derailed his life turns out, you will stand by him as a faithful, true friend?!

My life will also pass like that, like the crouching, aged dog who looks with tired, tearful eyes, while happiness came to you, his troubles and troubles were gnawing at his eternally bleeding soul!
