It just hurts |
Lovers of yesterday
Drift away , no love no smile.
sit like strangers..
The music of love
no more a manna for him
notes turn discordant.
Why this drift
between the love birds,both
are now world apart.
The stars and moon
Witness to their sweet nothings ,
silently see her tears.
Prompted by Haiku Horizons 14th week prompt 'Drift'.

The world does not exist when the lovers are together and when they drift they are world apart. sad but true.
