Songs from Laura
Chapter one
The night after what happened
I couldn’t sleep. I couldn’t believe it.
She just lived me, alone, with 2 sad songs written in a little paper and a recording. I didn’t even want to listen to it, it seems like I wasn’t important enough for her.
She just lived me, alone, with 2 sad songs written in a little paper and a recording. I didn’t even want to listen to it, it seems like I wasn’t important enough for her.
I started to read the first
song, called: ‘US’. Now there wasn’t more ‘us’. The song began with a beautiful
sentence but it was also a false one: “I
will never leave you…” I don’t know why, but I began to cry, well I know why,
because I really missed her.
<<It all happened about
a year ago, in April; I was in the lonely park of my town, Springfield, when
she appeared. I was incredibly shocked; she was like an angel... I don’t know
how to describe her, but then I knew that she will be the girl of my life. We
started to meet in the same park, every day and at the end of June, almost
without realizing, we were completely in love.
We spent our best days in all
the life; we sang under the rain, we played as two little children, we spent
sleepless nights… it seemed perfect, but it wasn’t; her parents hated me, they
always tried to persuade her with their stupid ideas: he is a troublesome guy,
he isn’t good for you darling...
The summer was so near and
unlucky she had to return to Texas at the end of summer, but she promised me
that she wouldn’t leave me ever. It wasn’t true.
One day, when September was
very close, I saw her talking and shouting with her parents in their big house,
I just heard some bad words about me and some bad words about us; then she
lived the house running away, in the forest. I tried to follow her but I
couldn’t, she was too fast and I lost her in the dark. That night was the first
time that I spent awake all the night without Laura.
The next day I went to look
for her, in her house but there was nobody at it, even her parents. It was
strange, but I decided to stay in the white stairs. Then was when I saw a little
envelope, on one side of the envelope, it was written my name with her
calligraphy: Paul. Inside it there
were the songs and the recording. >>
So now, I was there, sitting
in those white and old stairs, reading the first song and trying to understand why
she lived me. Today the sun didn’t come out; today’s a rainy day, the first day
without Laura.
