Untwined
the stories you used to weave
and would ask me to believe
they make me aware
of breaths that we take
and venom that we spew
of lives that we fake
and lies that we live
universes apart
time is fine sand
and our untwined hands
make a coarse sieve
you should have stayed
when the world was conquerable
or so, I used to believe

Liked this one Raj. The 'You should have stayed' comes so gently as a wistful thought.
