Lost Love


What happened to our love!

I see it hovering around 
brushing past us
and hiding between the crevices 
of our assumptions
Or, sometimes, breathing hard 
under the piles of indifference
Yet sometimes, caught miserably
between our egos
stung by our words,
hurt!

our language failed us
I didn't understand yours
you misunderstood mine
Our words got us here
in the abyss of silence-
deep, dark and hopeless


Is it spring already!?
you expect me to pick flowers
All I see is weathered leaves!
Autumn sings woefully
in the recesses of
my poor heart
