Caesura
Nothing to say.
Between us. The silence is cold as ice.
It cuts through my veins and
lets the blood spill out
hot - it melts the ice cap
beneath my feet.
I fall under the freezing lake.
A blue calm around me
lets me know there is more
that surrounds me -
That's when I realize I need air.
Need to breathe.
But my body stiff can't swim.
I give up
I fight
I give
in to the night
I realize this is not the same
shadow you cast so big
around me. You sucked all
the light and carried it back
to your secret hidden lair.
Now I notice, I see it, my
eyes blink.
One. Two. Three.
Four.
I am back where we started.
The silenced cold night.
So I turn towards you and
tell you, what I thought was
a dream was better than
being around you.
