Dion is Quiet
Their marriage had left a demineralized matrix or was it the other way around
Possibly feminine revenge for her own mid-life crisis gone hard in denial
Where once had been gems precious crystals and finely grained rock seams
A desolate womb of silence scooped the last remainders of once happy times
Dion challenged the burden and rolled the ragged stone up a steep void in vain
‘Could have should have would have’ followed the sysyphean slope of gravity
Claimed diogenean wisdom and honestly told Alexandra to get out of his orbit
Soaked up his sun and blocked the faded memories of her once shining beauty
He mentioned undying love but received an evil eye as reward for the promise
Pointed a lantern of reason and feeling towards the overgrown path of love but
Was rewarded by a risorius grimace in-scripted onto a stone wall of vile wrath
Gave her the benefit of doubt and displaced his self-preservation with surrender
The years have passed and after a protracted spell of understanding her venom
Rationalizing analysing interpreting and making lame excuses for her behaviour
Long after he found new hope and happiness that surpasses his wildest dreams
Dion wonders whether silence is only a golden reminder of who’s hurting whom
Surely politeness shows certain respect and sentient beings deserve all regard
Karma wishes for consideration chakras need to develop and a still lotus flower
Is worth more than a thousand torn roses as a fig of new growth is quietly sweet
And yet raw truth demands her to hear what a calculating creep she had become
