. . . physics of absence . . .

By NikesRain

 








it's like watching leaves on water

the slow dance of turning

an inner swirling of loss

with outward serenity

so quietly masking and graceful

almost drifting in carefree languidity


i wonder if anyone sees

the weight of the wind

or how it moves and weaves

eclipsing the melancholy

within my step
