Alphabet by alphabet
And word by word,
Feelings join in to form sentences.
Sentences, which are incomplete …
Without a drop of tear.
Loneliness joins the alphabets in words
And the words are held together by fear.
Fear of losing something …
Something, which I could never have.
This is so strange, the words wonder –
As they look at each other with confusion
Something is wrong…
Perhaps wrong alphabets joined –
To form wrong words…
How can someone fear losing something –
One could never have?
The hand stops writing,
The pen wonders, “What next?”
The alphabets feel lost,
The words are tired,
The sentences go to bed
And feelings keep me awake.
