Departed

Predictable. Sedated. Still.

An image in motion.

Subtle. Wandering. Wondering.

Lies, Love. Despire.

He rose to fall.

In-animatedly he cluttered

Maths solved his problem.

He watched.

Night came. Looked at him in awe.

Uninvited, he left. A new dawn.

Stared. Uninspired, he looked away.

And turned to night again.

Jumbled in the jigsaw

he found a part of him.

A fragment of his soul

Lying unattended.

The sign on the door

read Restricted Entry.

He forced himself, in vain

The door was himself.
