no fairytale ending
there is
only
stony silence
between us
and a much blacker plague
than the one in my lungs
in his eyes
he fed his vigilant attention
and affections
to fantasy and fiction
and I knew
I could not fuel
this storm cloud of deception
any longer
and so I cried
and I cried
and I cried
and when I could not cry
any longer
the storm was over
and the silence came
from being
alone
only
stony silence
between us
and a much blacker plague
than the one in my lungs
in his eyes
he fed his vigilant attention
and affections
to fantasy and fiction
and I knew
I could not fuel
this storm cloud of deception
any longer
and so I cried
and I cried
and I cried
and when I could not cry
any longer
the storm was over
and the silence came
from being
alone
