Clueless

CLUELESS 
Your quietness makes me lose track of time, 
Feels so empty without the sound of your voice, 
My heart actually pounds to fill up this void! 
“Where‘re you?” Shrieks desperate voices in my mind.. 
 To my dismay, echoes of my footsteps responded to my concern. 
Sleeping without whispers of your voice pushes me in deep tunnels of melancholy, 
This lump in my heart tempts me to take a barbiturate and fall into a deep reverie. 
No solace in my own cubicle… 
Walls crashes over me, 
Halls bang doors before me, 
Malls disguise you… 
Unreachable you‘re, but you just standing there invisible! 
Yet in my dreams you are visible! 
Why, why, why… 
That once in a blue moon you drop a call without a text, 
 freezing me to death as you elope into sudden silence? 
Your tongue slips easily into defense, 
yet you wouldn’t jump over the fence! 
Your reasons are addictive like Marilyn Monroe’s lies, 
Really there is no need for us to be lovers and liars, 
Because we sensitively aware of our fate! 
Truth is, you ‘re a compatible mate, 
But you fight to tame, 
Well, that isn’t fame! 
Yes, you are fallible, no need to be obscure, 
Its in everyone’s genes. 
Sometimes I wish to emigrate to another planet, 
Therefore, you won’t be my magnet! 
Residing within your flesh will be a pleasurable resolution, 
Crazy thoughts I have sometimes, 
 Wish to sneak in your mind, your heart, 
To get true versions of your thoughts  about me, us… 
With all the compliments, drags along the impediments, 
Very ironic because love has to be impeccable! 
So irrational for you to disappear, lest you confirm its our apogee’ 
No need for you to take a ride because im too gullible… 
It’s a fact, my love to you is very legit, 
But allow me to interrogate, do you still… 
Love me? 
Need me? 
Don wanna lose me?? 
Thought of it is scary 
Because im CLUELESS
