Flow

"flow"

they said

"move on with time"

and yet I couldn't

as tears bloated the sleeves

of my crease-less shirt

flow I did

with the gulls that hovered

across those lakes

where we plundered the waves once

remember, darling?

flow I did

to the mesmerizing rhythm

of rain drops brushing

tickling our love

we hid beneath the clouds

in silent ecstasy

flow I did

holding the shells that carried

the sound of the seas

beyond which we dreamt

a life, now forgotten

but do you remember, sweetheart?

I fail to flow today

the burden weighs heavily

on my frail shoulders

I sink deep

into the abyss

of twinkling nothingness
