In
front of mirror I stand
Caressing
your reflection
Feeling
the warmth of your breath
Melody
of voice never heard
Capturing
the fleeting heaven
Central
to my existence
Do I
see speck of shadow
Settling
in your eye
Brewing
storm in your chest
Nudging
doubts
Burgeoning
annoyance
Ready
to blow my world in smithereens
Up you
throw your hands
Too far
away we are ....You say
And
turn to retract your steps
Away
from my pleading eyes
Crushing
silent hopes for good
Please...Can't
we pretend just this once
that we
are together...
