*I see that far away look in your eyes
Are you leaving me once more?
like Whispered conversations
falling down a spiral staircase.
Like secrets as they hide in silence.
I can hear them in the night
Yet I don’t.
The same way that voices are lost
In the ****** of **********
The same way the rose fades
without water.
The same way stars melt
when daybreak calls.
I listen intently for your footfall.
Walking away, only echoes remain.
And inside my chest the sounds
that a heart makes when breaking.
And I contemplate
the dangers in your beautiful eyes.
And the gravity of the stars.*

Uunspoken fears and doubts
