Kafka on the beach
I look over my shoulder
for the time that's been
moments and people
that will never come again
then you come oh Melancholy
reminding that the past
is a butterfly of history
which is impossible to catch
because truth is
you can remember
you can miss
but you can only once exist.
________________________
then Kafka on the beach
taught me something else
the things you have experienced
will stay longer than a scent
because the soul is like a library
with room for them we love
so if they disappear
they can still be near.
