Yesterday

YESTERDAY

Peace shrouded on your face
Make me sick.
You used to open a bundle of words
Like water flowing from pipe
Pearls and sharpened crystals-

You have worn a mask of silence
It becomes you not 
Tallying calculations
Complex arithmetic
Narrow time.

I'm afraid to look at you 
Deep silence between us 
Makes me Frightened
