Past present

In moments when you need casual conversations
Or someone to humor you
Or someone to just be there
Staring at the blue-painted walls of your bedroom
Pensive, quiet
Or perhaps sharing the newspaper at breakfast
Sipping what used to be our favorite coffee

We can talk
I can be an animated company
In moments when you’re unwell
In moments like this
I wish you’re not alone
I wish I can be there
We were friends, after all.

Adrift

The greatest travesty of love and goodness is doubt.

To doubt is to set adrift in the abyss of paranoia, diffidence and fear.

Fear leads to selfishness and heartless adamancy.

You besieged me with your love, yet threatened to withdraw when everything frightened you.

You left me in the marshland of uncertainty.

Once again.

I am set adrift.
