Since we spoke..

[hazeldusk]

It's been 3 years and 33 seconds
You must remember 
We tried so hard to make amends
But were always unclear
On persisting fundamental things
Like love and rings.

Everyday I see the mirror
agog in silent horror.

What makes an act wrong, It screams -
The motive?
Or the outcome?
What makes a doer guilty, It shrieks - 
His deed?
Or his desire?

I squeeze shades and hues out of a tube
And splash them on the canvas
My fingers join a tint with another
And keep searching for an answer.
