Hann and Beth

when beth and hann had to leave

I thought I might just well forget them

as the others had told me

they would never be back

hann came and kissed my cheeks

leaving a trace of her scent

it was quite hard

to tell her she was special

but it was more hard when

beth told me she would be going away

away and forever away from me

the same usual nose to nose touch

and she ran ...ran as fast as she could

may be i was crying

may be she was

I wasn't quite sure whose tears were rolling down

my cheeks

and touched the spot where hann had kissed

it burnt

burnt so hard that i had to wash my face

and realize i wasn't myself

any more

or was I like this always

and had just changed with their

presence

beth

and hann

her name was hanna beth

she was my love

my first love

and now she was gone

dwelt back to the darkness of reality

I was not sure where I belonged

I had to pinch to know

and landed up in the brothels of London

and stood aside

with the spotless white camisole

to cover the last remaining dignity

I could run away

like beth and hanna did

or I could stay

like hanna beth

like me

my name

my identity
