9 APART(unrequited love)

What are your beliefs? Is it all the same to you? Your words flow in mockery of the language forced upon your kind. The r’s roll differently because, how could they not? I toss the dices, yet the outcome stays the same. The nagging feeling of kindred souls. In the beginning, like a child, it was unclear. I crawled, staggered, fell, until the log fell from my left eye. Night lights from a time past. Fleeting moments in a familiar city, but you are missing. Do you feel it too? The grandiosity of the peacock? Its feathers blowing the sands of nostalgia in my face? Surely you must feel it too. We both existed in that single moment. How long must I wait for reciprocity? Like a dream on the tip of the finger, it vanishes as I open my right eye. Was it all a dream, my darling? Or did I imagine this to be? Neptune wins again. His cruel illusions, dancing around me in a ritualistic theme. When will I learn this karmic lesson? All is not what it seems…
