Going Against the Flow

Going Against the Flow

A Poem by Neville

Going Against the Flow




Why stare at me


like that


my darling with


such ice cold


apprehension ..


A singular


detachment


if ever there was ..


Don’t dare


tell me that you


think you


were misread,


by any chance ..


How on earth


did we arrive here


like this ..


And while at it,


pray tell ..


Why have you


now deserted me


and no longer


love me ..


In spite of how


much water,


has now flowed


both clean


and so freely


beneath our bridge ..

dear Neville... many Bridges to cross... the view was lovely and then the Sky asked why the water rippled by so softly that Angels cried. We are never alone, as Birds on Wing sing lullabies. tenderly, Pat

Agreed, but all too real. So many 'mark time' all their lives.

Yes, sad isn't it .. Cheers Chris .. Neville
A haunt of a write. The ice cold stare and death. Bridges and rivers have an ugly side at times. That’s where these words led me. I felt a shiver. First to arrive. I hope some others follow Neville.
