Dilating distance in lovers eyes

Dilating distance in lovers eyes

A Poem by LR SEPENG
"

Deteriorating relationship

"
Would you rather I lied
As I stared into your eyes
I thought you could handle the truth
But the incident made you mute

So now I sit on the coach
Waiting for you to come around
But upon your entrance
The house gets a bit more silent

And I know you're not impressed
But it's an issue we must address
Or just move on with our plans
While pretending we'll still be friends

And Im cursed with the silence
Because I hate disagreements
But this is my fault
So I shall the problem taunt

So I opened my lips
With no jokes,no quips
And I said let's talk about this
Put down the tea I once sipped

I opened my mouth
His eyes lay smeared with clouds
To my husband I said, the only way I can
I'm sorry,honey, I once looked like a man
