1/5

She:
Of hands whose touch are of
guised affection
Of gaze which holds
of sealed secrets
spilling out

Her laughter is an etched memory
But who will ever find the despair behind the pretense?

He:
Of hands bereft of love
forever probing for real yearning
Of gaze directed
towards another whom he'll never learn to reciprocate;
an acquired instinct
in an undying cycle of rebounds

His presence will always
haunt her; she that he'll never ever learn to reciprocate

He, a he and she, a she
He in a corner and she in the middle

They just don't learn where to find their place

Prelude

Back in a time wherein
we are more than just inkblots
on paper; more than captured colors
in film; where we are
eternalized
in pseudo-reality

all selfish intents aside

Animosity

has filled the hollow space between us
the mist that shrouds us in moments
of stillness that not even us can stir

parting is not without regret
and not even sleep
can wake us out of it
