Still she said she needed more space.

‘It’s like you never feel anything’

I do

You just can’t see it
That’s a good thing
Me keeping it inside
That’s a good thing

If you could get inside my head
You'd see how I am a nervous wreck
You'd see how each decision sends me in a frenzy
You'd see how each morning I wake up terrified of what might come

But luckily you don't

I can't have you ruining my reputation after all

(pin drop silence)

There's two of us,
Echoes of imaginary sounds,
Echoes of silence,
Secrets along with lies,
Hearths warmed as the light succumbed to darkness,
Saw nothing but your shadow,
You chose my soul for my heart and opted to keep me as 'your secret string attached to your soul' ,
Yet ,'I love you', you'd say
Easy for you to say, all that seemed to be deliberateness though you said it wasn't deliberate, but that fractured my heart, just so you know,

Day after day,
Step away, after another step away,
Lie after lie,
We we're  falling,
Drifting apart,
Fed me with deceptional beautiful lies,
Perfection though not a friend,
You we're too imperfect,

Tired of playing pretend,
Hidden expectations,
The struggle of being right or wrong, not so sure what it was,
Lovestruck I once was,
The far we'd come was the end, or so it seemed,
Road to ruins,
You went on one knee,
And I said what you expected me to say or not,
But certainly what karma expected me to say,
And now forever you'd be, the scar never to be erased,
No! it was,
We had drifted too apart,
Beyond saving,
Not even a ring would,
Walking away would,
We stumbled and we fell and broke what was remaining of us to ever rise again,
We had scattered into too many pieces...
We bend and this time we broke......

— The End —
