A soulless you and a lifeless me,
Sharing a bed, maybe cups of tea.
Cold sheets freeze with subliminal passivity
Isn’t it an example of our objectivity?
A flaccid romance,
Ignores every intimate chance
An impelled hello,
Isn’t our love but, quid pro quo?
A blistering accusation
But, to indifference, there is no salvation
A happy visage,
Is but a mere mirage
Cold dinners and unopened bottles of wine,
Pinching silences and yearnings of my heart’s confine.
A soulless me and lifeless you,
Sharing a kinship, we hope wasn’t true.
