Falling Into an Abyss

By HudaFatima

He sat upright

Staring hard at his screen

And I at Him

Falling deep into an abyss

An abyss of his boyish voice

The ring of his laugh

And that quietness plastered all over Him

I sneak a peek

And He adjusts his chair

As though hiding from my stare

And just like that

My heart sinks deeper

Into thoughts of Him

Brewing with a beeper

My mind wonders about

What all the things He thinks about

On all those days when He quietly awaits

For the sun to go down and Him to run back home

I hope He knows

How He holds

The switches of my core

If I were to steal words to send Him

It would be Taylor singing -

'Please don't be love with someone else'

''Please don't have somebody waiting on You'
