Strangers Again

When you speak not,

And my ears hear not, 

Who is it to blame, 

You or I or us together

For the weighed words?

I wonder what story it was

We both wrote together,

Amidst dreamy eras 

And slow-moving time,

Your being there for me.

From two ends and spaces,

Two identities met as if

We fell into each other

By peels lying on the road, 

Looked like an accident.

Days wander and flow

Nights silent and slow,

Together we built towers,

That threaten heaven,

And touched the skies.

Then in one careless word,

The fury of heaven breaks,

Like the tower of Bablyon,

Our  virtual world crumbles,

Into understood niceties.

Will you remember how we began?

The tongues we spoke together,

Drawn by puzzles and threads,

Scattered through words on edge,

We stand, like strangers again.
