Villanelle 267

its not meant to be

It wasn’t always like this
Happened in a dream
Something came amidst 

Was it your gentle kiss?
Allowing a steady stream
It wasn’t always like this

The depth of your touch, making clear I exist
And in the shadows of your scream
Something came amidst 

Forsaken your stare and sharp tongue hiss
You ran, gone in a distant steam 
It wasn’t always like this

And in your absence, I fear the list
of tangible lights and beam
Something came amidst 

Even in the hours of our sonata
when you held my hand and kissed my cheek 
I knew it wouldn’t always be like this

Something will come amidst.
