Subject: when love dies

When Love Dies

Between us a wall of unspoken words, a
Hardening concrete mass of resentment.
Where once palms grew and a lagoon of
Love smiled, is now a forsaken building
Site where dust blow in a wind that holds
No promises of renewal.

My inability to show emotion for fear of
Rejection, my distance of mind, my
Silence when you wanted to hear words
Of love. Your suspicion, your accusation
Always thinking that I loved someone
Else made my silence deeper.

�And now? Living together out of fear
Of being alone, elderly as we are, waiting
For something to happen, we both lack
The courage to leave, sinking deeper and
Deeper into an embittered apathy and
Memories are a foreign land.
