God Knows Why

It’s been a long time
Her blank calls had
Stopped.

It’s been a long time
Her letters had also
Stopped.

Though left at peace,
He still wondered
Why ...
A girl so restless,
Could be so quiet.

Then came a
Telegram:
Her heartbeat
Had stopped.

And all of a sudden,
He became
Listlessly
Restless ...

God knows why.
