A Vanishing Abyss

The love in your features fades when you look at me. Disappointment takes its place instead The sweet smile encased in your full pruce lips Is stolen by a thin grim line Your eyes luminesce with admiration as you face the dawn The cold wind blows when our gazes meet The effortless harmony of your voice Diminishes into a sharp impersonal tone at the mention of my name When will this change? When will I see the smile lying within your lips again? The love in your eyes The gentle praise in your voice The soft waves of your worship I want to be loved by you All over again Like it was way before When your velvet waters cradled me on to the shore Oh Mother! Give me your embrace That is all my soul’s desire The warmth of your everlasting love That will stain onto my skin Give me your benign words That will stay with me forever The faint whispers that soak me with wisdom And engulf me in an ocean that is all our own. But such an ocean does not exist.
