Feelings shaped into words, inspired by moments
Here, still, ready
you watch me on the train, wonder why
I smile to myself
at a thought you’ll never know.
The minds are like secret tunnels
with limited access
‘Sorry you cannot pass!’
For you, the train doors open
but my thoughts do not.
They are closed,
they are mine.
You do not realise, but you’re pushing me away
With every second that the clock ticks
waiting for an answer
the gates of my heart draw closer
Shutting you out
Oblivious
The space in a time a sign of
the distance between us.
