Poems - a change in behavior

a change in behavior

by delapruch

after the luster subsides
& the background music
leaves the scene,
the two who couldn’t keep
their hands off one another,
begin to start a campaign of
mutual surveillance,
secretly monitoring
(going through each other’s
things when they aren’t around,
scrutinizing every gesture &
looking for underlying meaning
in every comment, phrase or
sweet nothing that bubbles out of
them) &
insecure about everything
which they once walked round
with all nonchalant &
blissful, like the sun would always be
shining down upon them---
a change in the behavior of
one of them will send the other
reeling &
the confusion, the mistrust &
the endless want to ask questions
in order to confirm their suspicions,
morphs the dynamic of what once
might have been referred to as a
“healthy relationship,”
into something very much different.
