The RED Ribbon

Walking down a wet crowded street
Despite all these people there was no one to meet
Down to my feet I saw somthing fragile and alone
A muddy grey ribbon sticked to a stone

I dipped  it in the beer i was drinking
Trying to wash away all the dirt
Like a jellyfish,  it was not sinking
I got the feeling someone got hurt

Slowly retrieving its colour again
The ribbon wispers its unfullfilled secret past
Just sadness  - no bitter complaint
When dreams vanish and hope becomes past

It was a part of beautiful red satin dress
Worn by a innocent girl for its first date
She was waiting all night,  her inner a mess
He did not come, forgot or was very late

When patiently sitting on a bench in the cold
The ribbon got loose and dropped
When disapointment was the only she hold
And for the first time her hope stopped.
