Why……???

Questions, queries

Answers, replies

Expectations, realisations

If that’s what you want,

If that’s what is needed,

If that’s what,

The time is asking for?

Are you alright?

If that’s what, you need,

For a question……

Certainly, it feels miserable,

If that’s what, you want,

As an answer……

Shrunk into the depths,

The depths of guilt

If that’s where, you expect,

Me to be

The sound of silence,

If that’s what, you want

Me to hear

Infinite darkness,

If that’s what, you want

Me to see

Lips zipped, hands tied,

Cursed, shaken by you

I lay beside,

Agonised, praying,

To my dreams, whispering

I know you,

You share the same,

Then why?

Why this pain?

This trouble?

Let the cloud burst

Pour out the rain

Make that old sound

Making each second

A memory profound.
