When you said (Two Poems in One)

~

When you said

those words I've been yearning

I couldn't focus

My mind went mute

I was set adrift

I sank into the abyss without blinking

Your words came unexpectedly

A comet, a shooting star

A wish granted.

In mind palace of thoughts, I ask

Why?

Why now?

Your words preoccupied my world

With your succinctly salient smile

~

Since you've made it here, now read backwards

Backwards reading:

With your succinctly salient smile

Your words preoccupied my world

Why now?

Why?

In mind palace of thoughts, I ask

A wish granted.

A comet, a shooting star

Your words came unexpectedly

I sank into the abyss without blinking

I was set adrift

My mind went mute

I couldn’t focus

Those words I’ve been yearning

When you said

A romantically inclined palindromic poem illustrating the significance of a feeling caught unexpectedly. Underscoring the same theme from top to bottom and bottom to top. Thanks for such an exposition. Greetings.
