I saw you today. You accidentally (or was it) brushed up against me, As you stopped in your tracks and turned the other way. I watched the collision in slow motion. As if I were floating far above the fray; I couldn't smell you any longer, and had nothing to say. Remarkably it pays -- The satisfying pangs of nothingness; The result of healing after so many days. I don't feel pity knowing you as I do. That old tape no longer plays; At last free from your smoke and mirrors haze. Here's to the pangs of nothingness for me. Whilst for you nothing -- Hurray! ~Just L (August 20, 2017) |
