Spread on the groundLike leaves in autumnI’ve lost myself to departed seasons To unwritten stanzasIn an unfinished songWe’ve lost ourselves in a rhyme Like miles of wordsRead without an acknowledgmentOur love has frozen in time A disconnected sculptureThat paints no pictureYou and I have torn apart Cold as silenceare the events in my diaryThey gather...
