No ink on the page, that was strange.
Why the silence?
That's not supposed to happen at this stage
Leading me on and then silence,
Why would I deserve a rebuke silent
Depriving me of my diet of your sweet comment.
I'm captured by you hence vulnerable to this rupture.
Afraid of being up staged,
scared that someone new has taken  center stage.
In the absence of your there's only rage.
I could let loose with an angry retort, and a war wage,
that would be the opposite of sage.
I'm lost at sea and all I can do is wait and see.
