When the Passion Leaves


When the passion leaves

there is no solace.

Words of comfort fall flat.

The muses no longer hold their chords.

 

The sky is fraught with greyish things

though others claim the sun is out

or torrential rain.

 

For you it is a dry spell.

No sadness.

No joy.

Only stillness remains.
