The Rupture

The change was sudden -

Like the flash of a lightning bolt.

Then came the deafening roar,

And shattered my illusion with a jolt.


Perhaps all of it was not so abrupt.

After all, there were many hints

Strewn on my way. Transperence:

Is your quality; mine is the grey tint.


The word 'we' has been buried long and deep,

You and I are at different ends today,

Connected by that same thread, though.

Tugging at both sides, but not giving away.


Change is never without a cause,

Never sudden. The seeds lie in our eyes:

Waiting for that lightning to strike, for

The thread to break - and with it, all ties.
