I see you look the other way
forbearing a feigned sigh
feeling the restrained ache
amidst
a myopic casual glance
from the corner
of your eyes
so beautiful ― oh so beautiful
so afraid the sun might
catch you crying
hearing the silent refrain echo
like hindsight in a box of tears
abetting an awkward growing distance
manifest
reality weighted
gravity
pushing down stronger
pacing the cage
door
swung open
with nowhere left to go
Its not just a dead end
crossroads
in the wake of some aftermath
a portal passed
through
long ago
where mazy shadows
linger like memories
of someone
you used to know
come rain or come shine
falling leaves
return to the roots
like teardrops return to your heart
love is stronger than death
and...,
there's no such thing as fair
