Going Against the Flow

Why stare at me
like that
my darling with
such ice cold
apprehension ..
A singular
detachment
if ever there was ..
Don’t dare
tell me that you
think you
were misread,
by any chance ..
How on earth
did we arrive here
like this ..
And while at it,
pray tell ..
Why have you
now deserted me
and no longer
love me ..
In spite of how
much water,
has now flowed
both clean
and so freely
beneath our bridge ..

Hello Neville...yep definitely not "misread" we all can have that look of what I would say Is "really?" With a look of fabulous distain.....when relationship cracks form we really see the worst side of the people we care for...even after a long time those cracks don't always heal well
hope your well....
