No Contact

No Contact

So abrupt she was
Without any notice, rhyme or reason
She ignored and ghosted me
All contact severed
All links dead.

A month
Now two, six have gone
A year has passed
Silence becomes my companion
I get on with life, my career and my hobbies.

I have given up
The silence at first deafening
Now I grow accustomed
I have given in
And have now started to delete
All memories and contact information

To my surprise
She reaches out today
And sends me a message
And wants to contact and get back together.

I remain silent, I do not reply
As I now have grown accustomed to no contact
Because you taught me, no contact is my best reply.

Sigh.. This poem actually feels like speaking in the voice of my soul as well.. Having been in such situation, I can deeply resonate with the ache that comes associated with it.. And when they come suddenly, wanting to reconnect.. Our hearts grow out of fondness & get accustomed to the situation of 'no contact' as it seems to be more comfortable and stable than making promises & then being left out in the cold.. Sigh, this one made me so emotional..

A flower exudes fragrance, judging not the recipient of its love, for it wishes not to lessen its stature.
