A poem I wrote tonight. Photo is a painting I made. Enjoy 🙂
In all the times you were gone
I searched where you weren’t existent
unaware of your presence, where,
our known emotions had gathered.
~~~
In a happenstance your feelings came to fruition;
Why were you hiding? Why so afraid?
At my awareness, your retraction, and my bemuse reaction,
all we said were stares.
~~~
If going back to what we were, became the intention;
Why the silence? Why the smile?
What we chose once was the place you distanced from.
I stuck and waited, with denial as my saviour.Â
~~~
There are no more words that can vanish what hurt,
but that one action healed what I never thought was possible.
And it replayed in my mind;Â
the smiles, the songs, the rhythm of our nights.
