The silence

THe Silence   

By Connie James 

    
Where would you be darling?
         Cannot sleep!  
But why would you care if sleep
I cannot be!
          Fragmenting within me.

The silence!! Darling why the silence? 
         I'm I being punished, it's killing me!
This being, living breathing,  
Standing facing you? 
         I see nought but sternness, looking back at me!

       Not a kind word coming my way, nought to say.  
A good ending I cannot see.
This obsessiveness! 
         I hope she loves you better than me! 

Me that adores you as I do 
     Worships te ground your standing
But darling, you see not me!
         Matters not how hard I try, oblivious to me 
You'll always be; 
It's killing me, can't you see? 

        But darling;
I hope she loves you better than me!
       My heart's fragmenting into a thousand little pieces!
 As if a poisonous dart wounding my heart
                       Killing me!   

        Begging outreaching kiss me! 
 But right through me staring, if I weren't there. 
        But darling;  
       You've changed, why I cannot see.   

      In the scheme of life, do I ever enter your mind? 
Or think of me as I do you? 
       This obsessive obsession, what can I say! 
Darling!  
 Hope she loves you better than me!
