A Random Poem

A challenge I took part in…Poetry with the letter ‘X’. At the time there were other letters available, but I decided on ‘X’. I had no idea what I would write about, but once the concept formed, the words all flowed freely. Original challenge post is here

A Nexus Broken

When friends exchange their status
For lovers, their excitement
has no explanations
they meet in excess
are vexed by each others absence
find any pretext to call each other
words never exhaust their sweetness
their love simply extended from familiarity
and…

romance reaches its climax
the complexities of a relationship
misunderstandings express into anger
toxic looks now replace the earlier intoxication
and…

it all exploded into thin air
nothing left to examine
except the battle of the “ex”es
did their friendship once exist??
