This Awkward Silence

This awkwrd silence in the streets,

this continuous stare
on the pavement and staircase,

this unwanted sight of mirage nearby,

closed shutters and reflecting glasses,

the sound of metro whistle,

it comes near and it increases,

it's not soothing,

it's not relaxing,

it's not heavy,

it's just some noise
of an empty vessel,

wirh nothing meaningful in it,

it's getting away now,

And then,

the awkward silence strikes back,

the scorching wind
takes its course,

the solitude street
reaps what was sown,

the life of concrete
searches for its shadow,

a shadow fathom away
and nobody can catch it,

a white swan
dancing in the sunlight,

a dark shark
widening her teeth,

a one eyed eagle
looking for a prey

a tired dog passing by,

the wrinkled face of the guard,

the hopeless walk of the sweeper,

this stare on pavement,

this stare on the staircase,

this awkward silence in the streets.
