Unimpressed
Unimpressed,
even though you discuss
and sketch details
of a wedding in Africa,
a honeymoon in Madagascar.
Indifferent,
inspite of the words
flavored to knock
such a cold distance
between us.
Suffused!
Your money is hanging
from my neck;
candle dinners, roses,
classic operas.
If only, dear...
we can be quiet
in a flick of passing time.
Cajole my eyes
with timid gazes.
Explain to me love
without chattering.
Spare me time to feel.
Clasp my tiny hands
with warmth.
