A poem

disconnected.

that's how i felt
when you turned off
the lights and
pulled the plug
on us.

no explanation.
no apologies.
no anything.
darkness falls.

shadows crept.
endless whispers.
thoughts went "bump"
in the darkness
of my heart.

confusion.
pain.
grief.
anger.
an endless parade
of emotions.
each searching
for answers.
none finding
any.

eyes slowly adjust
to darkness,
where once
there was light.

when the heart
no longer sees,
the mind's eye
learns braille.

clarity comes.
needs lose their
stronghold.
passions fade.
darkness isn't so dark
after all.

who's disconnected now?
