Not the LoveA Poem by A.BYou are the time The time that turned into silver mountains and dawn flakes The clear fog of holding on and letting go You are the cold marble floor The handshakes The line The forbidden touch . . . and The memory of something that never happened You are the Extraordinary Ridiculous Unexpected Event The volatile orange in the sunset The forgetful tree and the distant tent You are the song I never shared The nervous smile The forced smile The lonely smile hanging from a silent reminiscence You are a word Imprisoned Ignored Forgotten You are the love The dream that never came true But You are not the moon Definitely not the moon You are not the cloud before the rain Nor the rain Not early morning walks You are not the friend . . . the secret The desert, the road The trivial talks Not the mountain I climbed to the top The voice I hear in my sleep Nor the rebellious purple in the sunset Not the fifth season, where I belong Not the cello in my favorite song You are not the end of my story You are not the the love Not the dream that might one day come true © 2015 A.B |
