Thoughts! Yet Again

When I said 'nothing', I spoke a lot
Some assumptions exposed, as we fought
My silences reveal meanings
For you cannot say, or know
And all your thoughts, you let it grow

It grows and dies,
With all my sins, I lie

When we spoke not once
Neither you nor I
Sat with empty mouth, with no words to shout
We don't understand the other
Drowned in senses, not to bother

Numbness seeps deep through
A pungent smell, I see it brew

A pattern stir deep
As we take a leap
Thoughtless nights, as I sit to wonder
What must I think? What must I ponder

I have become so blank
Where all my smiles sank
What do you see?
Ain't all feelings gone? 
I feel, I am yet again reborn

Birth is a new phase, or return to an old
Words that I collect from you every fold

Ask not me! Where I am lost
Why did I speak ? At what cost?
A sentimental foe fumes in 
I commit, I commit yet another sin!

Another mundane

Argument

Thoughts, I have spoken to you
In loop, iterating our perceptions
Thoughts, I had a coffee with you
In our evenings, when all work is done
 
Thoughts, when we took a walk
When words ran dry, sentences didn't talk
We ran from one argument to another
Consumed by mundane breather
 
Then, we pause for a while
Exchange a courteous smile
Part our ways
To begin a new phase
 
An argument to come
An argument to grow
A perception revealed by some
An assumption to throw
 
There, I see, you building a phrase
Punctuating your terms
Slowly crafting a tedious maze
Curating a chase

Our arguments grow, in a vicious flow
Words - peak and crest low
Voices of my head taste so numb
Neither I hear, nor can I sum

Arguments! yet again come with me
Words still flow, not meant to be
Get lost! you thought
Bother not me
Let me live peacefully in my ignorant abode
