My Monday Metrical Musings #279

Ghosting Me? Or…?

Still just one tick
After more than one text
On WhatsApp
Did my messages not get through?

What happened pal?
Are you ok?
I even called
But you didn’t pick up at all!

Are you ghosting me?
Or…?
I’m afraid to think
What could have been?
If only I knew
Visited you

In your home in the West
Though I’m East, I can travel
By car. Train. Bus.
Whatever it takes

But I didn’t so I don’t know
Where you stay. Where did you go.
Have you shut me out?
Or shut yourself out?

Where are you pal?
Where are you?
Are you ok?
Did something sway?
Within you such that
You’ve tapped out
You’re burnt out

Or did I say something wrong?
Gone out of tune with our song?
Or I no longer belong
To your inner world
Cast aside. Ignored.

Anything’s fine
Just not this
Silence.
Ghosting.

I’m terrified
That you were only my imagination
That I was only yours

Are you a ghost?
Or am I?
