Emanuelle Can’t

 

to escape this loneliness 

there’s only one means 

 

through the origin of the world 

said to be obscene 

 

still figuring it out 

shooting the dark 

 

every beat of the drum 

strum of the heart

 

Emmanuelle can’t 

How could I 

 

reconcile passion and reason

with your lifestyle 

 

Emmanuelle can’t

neither can I 

 

say goodbye 

to the purest moments of my life

 

you’re in a place 

where you can’t find the opposite

 

in a moment when 

you won’t embrace my concepts

 

Gainsbourg 

took my last cigarette 

 

now I don’t feel like 

I can find that peace again

Captures the sadness of a relationship that readers can undoubtedly relate to.

Such a sad, story yet no rest, marvellous, incomplete?
