The roller-coaster kinda
affection
Cups overflowing with
deceit
Plates of regrets adorning
the dinner table
Serviettes stained with no
remorse
Spoons of insults making
way for the ears
Forks and knives playing
defence
defending the reality that
dwells in the absence of us
Curtains of confessions
missing from the windows
yet it's too dark to see
through
the truth that never found
way outta the lips
the very lips that
buffeted on the walls of our sacred being
Tears washing away our
holy communion
