I'm not sure if this alludes to a life partner, but I immediately feel your loneliness. When a loved one reacts to a given situation in a different manner, it is so hard not to feel cold in the shade.
Hopefully, you will meet again somewhere at the line where light meets dark.

ReplyDeleteIn the marble orchard
ReplyDeleteof stark stillness
we remain separated in
time.
You bask in the sun
while I grieve in
the chill of the
shade
with emotions being
shuttled in winds.
