             “I am an invisible man...I am a man of substance, of flesh and bone, fiber and liquids—and I might even be said to possess a mind. I am invisible, understand, simply because people refuse to see me.” -Ralph Ellison (Invisible Man)

When They Leave with Silence and not a Goodbye

 
I’ve been trying to understand you for some time now.
Trying to reach you but have not been able to grasp you.
The time has gone now.
But where are you?
 
I’ve been trying to call you for some time now.
Trying to listen to you but have not been able to hear you.
The past is fraught now.
But what is our friendship to you?
 
I’ve been trying so hard to support you with love and kindness.
Patience and comfort.
Respect and space.
But the distance is loud.
The rejection is even louder.
The silence from your mouth is astronomical.
 
I’ve been trying
And trying.
My patience is gone now.
But so are you.
