Draw the Curtains

His ghost watched her
draw the curtains
across empty air.
She wished he was still alive,
surely her uneventful life
was nothing
waiting for him.

A Stranger of My Love

If he remained,
a stranger of my love,
time,
I'm well aware,
is impracticable to convince me
to settle.

Justly Selfish

I had a deeply-rooted fear
of concealed trouble
that could inflict seasons of gloom and silence,
depression welcomed by
growing happiness.
We must be for ourselves in the long run - justly selfish.

Perfect Recluse

Her anger was furious, her love fierce.
However, she had a propensity to invariably vex.
She learnt she had not once trusted.
She was a perfect recluse,
perfectly contented,
how long before those she notice, you could not climb the frost.
