Strangers in Paradise

(c) Terry Moore

Últimamente se me ha dado por leer Strangers in Paradise, así que estoy devorando ávidamente los tomos. La semana que viene no me quedará nada por leer... Así que tendré que pensar seriamente en importar los números que falten de USA, o morir de desesperación.

Terry Moore es un gran escritor, un guionista genial que sabe emocionar... Por ejemplo:

If You're Leaving Me

If you're leaving meplease don't tell me.

You're still pleasing me.

Do I fail you?

I will wonder today

If tomorrow you'll stay.

I can hear your voice turn cold

When you turn to me I know

I'm the one who won't let go

Are you blaming me for holding on

When you let me know

It's my last chance

And I know it's gone.

If you're leaving me

please don't tell me.

You're still pleasing me.

Do I fail you?

I will wonder today

If tomorrow you'll stay.

A Distant Scream

Somedays I think

I'm going to give it all away

Find a job that pays

Some letters behind my name.

Somedays I'll be

Standing at a mirror looking in

Your face starts fading in

The feeling comes again.

I guess I'll always be

The losing side of you.

Your mismatched other shoe

Your after midnight blues.

Love is a mystery to me

A loser's dream.

These days

Are spent in hot desire to be the way I was

To ride the magic bus

To try and stay in touch.

Afraid

My face is just a memory to those I knew.

An influential clue

To what they have to lose.

I guess I'll always be

The losing side of you.

Your mismatched other shoe

Your after midnight blues.

Love is a mystery.

To me a distant scream.
