disappearance
you walk on by
brackish in thoughts
turbid and livid emotions
swimming in your cold heart
did you disappear out of impulse?
or was it planned?
doesn't matter
your weakness ruled your mind
you should have known
thriving in ignorance
isn't my strength
and certainly not
forgetfulness
in reality I thought:
I'd never see you again
at least now
I can put my mind to rest
knowing you're alive and well.
brackish in thoughts
turbid and livid emotions
swimming in your cold heart
did you disappear out of impulse?
or was it planned?
doesn't matter
your weakness ruled your mind
you should have known
thriving in ignorance
isn't my strength
and certainly not
forgetfulness
in reality I thought:
I'd never see you again
at least now
I can put my mind to rest
knowing you're alive and well.

When lyricist Paul Webster wrote that "Love is a many splendored thing" - he omitted to add that it can also be a profoundly traumatic thing.
Very emotive poetry...
