THE ECHO REACHES THE WHOLE SKY

Wages 
of alienation 
were increasing. 
We were afraid 
of reflections. 

Shifting 
of landscapes 
will hurt the river. 
I was blinded 
by blues. 

Relationship 
becomes a speech 
impediment, 
bonds start 
breaking. 

I wanted 
to call your name -
in solitude. 
The echo 
reaches the whole sky.
