But was there a silence that shattered
When words poured out of lonely spaces?
First came darkness and then streams of light
But without you in my mangled thoughts
Where was light and its need for dark spaces?
Beaten or lonesome, the path precedes a traveler
But when well-travelled roads are lost in doubt
How did you find a home in unmapped wilderness?
At first there was an imagined you, then came you
But when the "you" disappeared into dream-vapors
Which blackhole devoured every atom of my world?
Temple tunes left fragrant scars on moonless nights
But at dawn when rituals lie abandoned and forgotten
Who was it that smeared colors of loss on this sky?
