You were mine for a night.
So, why am I leaving?
Is it because, I am scared?
Scared that I might,
Seek shelter in your frowns and sighs,
Scared that I would give in,
Give way to your assurances.
Please, give me a lie.
You say, that
I don't want to
Leave.
Not now, not just yet.
I rub my,
Kohl rimmed eyes.
I yawn,
I lie.
Stay stay stay.
For breakfast,
For one more night,
For one more touch,
For one more poem.
Read it out to me,
The same one,
You quoted last night.
The one about fulfillment.
Unnecessary.
Don't complicate.
Sleep, love.
And, wake up
To my empty bed.
Defiance.
Disillusionment.
Turbulence,
Of both morality
And, conscience.
I shouldn't.
Meaningless.
Is that what you think,
We are?
Then,
Give meaning to us.
More assurance.
I laugh.
Gullible.
You clasp my hand,
You wrench my wrists,
Stop wrecking me.
Screams.
Rage.
Irrationality.
We are not meant to be.
Two banks,
Of a stream.
We never meet.
We run parallel.
We carry with ourselves,
The gravels of who we can't be.
LET.
ME.
GO.
Barefoot on the heavy carpet.
Heavy heart.
Heavy pride.
You won't come back,
Will you?
Even if I did,
Will you,
Come back to me?
