Mislaid.

Fay Slimm.

 

Mislaid.

 

We lived through a blaze of debate-soaked relationship
mindless of hearing's real worth.

We shuffled in biased cut-price ideas of winner-related
pretensions to obscure feelings.

Agreement went into time's melting pot as shut-eyed
we arranged private new worlds.


We talked ourselves into dry ground, regrets denied
sorry forgot its true power.

Love's ultimate non-sound got mislaid between words
and lost seemed repair's quiet dance.

 

Shall we reconstruct silence and give Us a last twirl ?

    I think sometimes silence and grace are synonymous. What a gift you have!
