Releasing a moment

The ghosts are slowly leaving the house, a multitude of dim lights seizing the stars. Nevertheless, they are not yet fully gone, and every now and then quietly wake me up, just to show themselves to me -- and quickly fade away.

This is one of such moments, which I decided not to imprison . Instead, there it goes, free as an ocean bird, to live abroad forever and never to come back.

"Why Should I Care"

Was there something more I could have done?
Or was I not meant to be the one?
Where's the life I thought we would share?
And should I care?

And will someone else get more of you?
Will he go to sleep more sure of you?
Will he wake up knowing you're still there?
And why should I care?

There's always one to turn and walk away
And one who just wants to stay
But who said that love is always fair?
And why should I care?

Should I leave you alone here in the dark?
Holding my broken heart
While a promise still hangs in the air
Why should I care?

(Carole Bayer Sager, Linda Thompson & Clint Eastwood, "Why Should I Care?")
