I have this uncanny talent
I can read between the lines
I feel your intense anger
like explosive landmines
You’re suave and chivalrous
Controlling all your ire
One wrong move on my part
May start a raging fire
Your pregnant silence says it all
That everything is lost
I look beyond my sharp vision
And see memory’s past ghost
So all hope is gone away
There is vacuum in my heart
I am stunned and quiet
My world is being torn apart
I loved you unconditionally
Was it just a one way traffic
Why saga of true love must
Have ending that is tragic
