I should have said something but instead I smiled I smiled why did I smile “we’re done” you said I wanted to scream — my throat closed “What??” So I just watched as you walked away The silence filled the air — I just stood there The silence echoed — it’s all I could hear If I could go back, I wouldn’t

The things I almost said
I should have said something but instead I smiled I smiled why did I smile “we’re done” you said I wanted to scream — my throat closed “What??” So I just watched as you walked away The silence filled the air — I just stood there The silence echoed — it’s all I could hear If I could go back, I wouldn’t
