unresponsive love


your cold hearted unresponsiveness
to my seeking you so fervently
makes my heart slow down
threatening even to stop pumping
that life giving blood to flow
to every fibre of my being


your hiding your face
and letting me not know
your dwelling that i may not reach you
to plead with you to listen
to my supplications overflowing
from the centre of my desolations


your running away from me
with your stone deafness
and silence of that widest wilderness
not even that camel, the desert ship
can enable me to reach you to deliver
my message for my becoming whole
