Khalid Albudoor Poet Free verse

Words

Morning tea is dark
Like the night behind our house
Where the sun lost its way
And the air did not stop to greet our trees.

We gaze at our place where we sat last night
we know 
we'll leave everything behind us
And won't collect the scattered words between the chairs.

Night was long
The candle is dusty and cold like our fingers
Why do we wait for tomorrow
If only to throw our words like pieces of papers 
on the table and leave?

Muhammad Imtiaz February 25, 2018 at 4:50 AM i also love your wordage .especially this line "Where the sun lost its way And the air did not stop to greet our trees." but i could not understand last stanza, if you can explain please Khalid Albudoor February 25, 2018 at 10:35 AM Thank you:)) In the last two lines is the answer. Why do we wait for tomorrow if we only use few words, while we sit to talk and then just leave?
