I, Woman, And A Lover

I came and you were surprised with my distance.
Words unuttered clattered like broken disk in my head,
a piece of silence separated us to an inch forever.
Turning your back while I kissed you hair,
I told you I am back � chic, nothing too impressive.
I felt the tremors inside your abdomen, you put my hands away
far from where I could embrace desire of welcoming me back
like amoeba gnawing every bit of fiber in your system;
draining what is left. Stubborn as the organism,
that clawed into your confines; the threat razed me down.
What's destroying us? What's eating us?
Pale, Spiritless, Insipid,
Cold and Indisposed; I let your silence churn me
from the inside, defenseless, helpless.

It took three days before one is convinced that something is wrong.
From bed to stretcher, from home to doctor's call,
reflexes fashioned a sense of optimism; survival

Medication has restored interest in the Living.
I am every bitter pill you swallowed;
every prick from the intravenous needle;
it connected me to you; to bring back existence,
cool you down as fever dissipates.

You said you are tired being sick,
weak, unaided.
You feel alone.
Abandoned.
Dehydrated.
Why did I not care?

I said you are sick,
weak and unaided.
You feel alone.
Abandoned.
Dehydrated.

I was there.
Silently,
a blanket, a pill, a needle,
the water that you drink.
You never noticed.

I didn't care.
I lived in you never wanting to be noticed.
I silently healed that which we destroyed
that which we consumed.
The tremors inside your heart I felt
as you continually cleanse.
I remained a part of pain, flushed.
I remained a part of joy, gained.

Why, I didn't care?
I stayed.
A Lover.
