Uncomfortable silence
Sitting between us.
I wish
I could relearn those eyes
Once chatoyant and
Deep brown portals
Filled with togetherness
Now all I see is
Recondite depth of emptiness
Projecting every cliché of me.
Casual facades of "How are you?"
What an utter crap!
The thrill wasn't saved
From being ephemeral
Is this romance still redolent?
Or the art of deception?
Or are we overstaying?
I guess it's replaying
Again and again.
And we just have to lilt
Not because we're spirited.
But because we don't know
How to stop the music....
