Indigo Into Dark

Indigo child came crashing on your dark

perspectives could not have coalesced

less than my essence and your soul,agony

the echo, hollow, whispers pain in solace

 

Your eyes so tight and small spoke of emptiness

and angst etched in the wrinkles of your face

the end of us was in the pain of our first glance

long suffering and stoic we mingle and remain

 

aesthetics did not exist for you and I

as countenance from essence does arise

for yours was never pleasing to my eyes

your silence screams that I was not your dream

 

 

your eyes small and hollow filled with pain

first glance was all it took to see our end
