Nonentity
A wandering spirit love failed to embrace.
Time, an immortal, continues to move at its pace.
Indecision chains curiosity's zeal.
The spirit begins to dwindle and so does the will.
A presence causes something to stir within.
Despite defenses around this half-dead heart, rekindled and unhinged.
An intangible hand reaches out; the demeanor changes from warm to cold.
Fleeting without explanation; uncontrolled.
A dangling modifier now in search of completion.
Unanswered questions hover open like a rotting wound; childhood notions.
Fragile, damaged; heart's enthusiasm regresses.
Adrenaline and emotions finally rest.
Silent pleas and cries for understanding go unheard.
Exits; no noise; no word.
Affection refuses countenance with vindictive epitome.
Pursuing in trance for IT will never “see",
this nonentity.
