Poetry: Cheating

by Ate.

Created on: August 12, 2008

Your eyes glaze over, you're barely there,
Anam cara, whose life I share.
Where do you go when the windows shutter?
Soul wanders away from all that mattered.

I see the clouds pass your sunrise eyes,
Yellow in the centre blue outside.
From once where rays of love and light shone,
Weather changing, part of you gone.

Once, I basked in the sun rays of your soul,
Now I cower in uncertainty, reassurance gone.
As the clouds drift past, eclipse your sun,
I wander dirt paths of a twilight zone.

Then once more I glimpse you there,
Beautiful friend, partner of years.
Our souls dance again as our eyes meet and shine,
Then I see your eyes cloud and pain is mine.

Where do you go? What do you see?
Why is it you can't stay and dance with me?
What is it, roaming inside your mind,
That now makes your soul hide away from mine?
