Love Poem: See the Empty Space

See the Empty Space

See the Empty Space



The sorrow leaves a pool
Dripped in pages to the floor

A sideways glance is thinking
It does not want to see you anymore

Gliding over the tiles lingers on their cold 
Searching secret niches to hide behind they’re cracking

And the sorrow leaves its pool
Sliding message bear traps springing closed

Nothing but a silence staining a polished surface
A reflection no one knows

It seeps from beneath the glances
That have no where else to rest

It hides behind your eyelids
In the place it knows the best

As the sorrow pool spreads with its counted motion
Its testament shed within the howling drips 

Reaches to a mirror
But does not want to see you anymore

The bawling engines roar 
A plane crash falling weight of your capture 

While diamond pith shatters into tissue
With the unspoken vowels of love

But gliding over the floor
The silence of sorrows pool

No one can hear the unspoken words
But everyone sees the smiles

They don’t feel the day is dead
Or see the empty space

They do not recognise the shadow
Which lynches on the corner of your mouth

They cannot see the eyes 
Into which yours still long to look

Only clues of something stirring
In the quietness of your voice

And the paper trail is littered with your silence
Dripped in pages to the floor

The sorrow leaves a pool
Floats away across the tiles
Skimming an unbroken sheen upon the chill 
Floats away across the tiles
