Beside You Poem by RIC BASTASA

Beside You



i am silent beside you
i guess i have nothing worth saying now
i have become a non-thinker
and poetry has not done any good at all
to another round of
our confrontation of the emptiness
beyond us.

soon perhaps i am ready to scream
but i will not be with you anymore
i have long decided to be just a stone
that you throw into the night
dissolving like an ordinary sigh
in the dusk
