Behind tears of
Indifference
My pride is aching.
My heart is sinking.
My soul stopped singing.
Lost between
Reasons to stay
And reasons to plead,
I find myself buried beneath
Excuses
And apologies
Weighing more than my worth.
While words I can’t speak
Swallow me whole,
The only thing that I can do
Is wait.
My head recollects pain
Old and new,
But it all traces back to you.
I wonder which is hurting more.
My tongue
Or my heart?
And that’s something
To everyone
But you.
