nothing concluded 42

acting as if
he doesn’t know
she is quite the actress
no longer
offering the support

the high point
has come and gone
the closing credits are
done and stopped rolling
the movie is over

two different eyes
for people now
one that questions
and the other that
doubts

he doesn’t even
know these people
never
really thought
he did

disagreeing with
sounds pounding
the air he clouds
with these smoky
emotions

has he been standing
in the cold
so long that he is lost
for feeling
numb

the other face is the one
he is looking to see
if it is the entire illusion
it must be what is
beyond the illusion as well

he doesn’t
have to be the desire
simply has to be
here and now
going to the same over again

discouraged in a cloudy
haze he has created
a mess as usually
is the case
nothing concluded…
