End Game


Asking for your support

not your agreement

I looked into your eyes

Seeing rejection

your stare blank and cold

our connection was untied

 

Your words became hollow

your touch nondescript

 new distance did we share

Alone while together

the ending in sight

—finality laid bare

 

(Dreamsleep: July, 2023)
