sometimes,
my silence tells more than my words
and my throat is caught up
in a whisper
a crystallised murmur of something
i can't quite explain.

often,
our hopeless colloquy ebbs away
and my fingers desperately
reach out for you
but you are worlds away and we are separated by something
i can't quite explain.

always,
you promise as you fade from sight
we will overcome our pain
but our voices are stifled- a chasm of emptiness
an irrevocable feeling
i can't quite explain.

you can't see what i see;
how she hides you from my sight
as if the gods above could see
the battle i will fight.
she whispers to you softly
as she takes you by the arm;
in no time you are captured
by her beauty and her charm.

her clever wit and confidence,
her voice, so soft and calm
she wooed you in so sweetly
'til you rested in her palm.

you couldn't see what i saw
how she tore you up inside
she broke your heart in pieces
said she'd love you, but she lied.
i'd tell you that you're better now
so many times i've tried.
but my words are never quite enough
to make your tears subside.

the cracks are never mended
and the scars, they will not go.
you'd go back to her quite willingly
because you love her so.
but you don't see what i see;
how she loves to see you cry.
i know how much she matters
and without her, you would die

but with her, it is killing you
this pain will never end
until you save yourself from it
so let her go, my friend.

— The End —
