Masks

Remember the night we lay together looking into each other’s eyes. We talked about our dreams, our fears, our love, our hatred what you didn’t like about me, what I wanted you to change. We shouted, we cried but the night didn’t end.

One by one our masks wore off and we were naked again.

Abyss

Their togetherness had just been a mirage. Like a staring contest which he lost the moment he blinked. 

She was gone and with her lost was the utopia.

In the bottomless pit where the memories dwelt of a past that could not be, he found his solace.
