five days.
how did so much crumble so quickly
like an old wall destroyed by one loose stone,
it took so little to break us down.
five days since you last said you missed me.
longer than that since i felt your proximity
all i've felt for a dozen days is distance,
seas and oceans of separation
five days.

five days.
this pain wouldnt be so wicked
had you simply voiced your worries,
coaxed your chords to confess your confusion.
but instead you abruptly dropped me, like
a searing *** on tender skin.
couldnt bring yourself to trust me or my heat.
laying on the floor, ive been waiting,
five days.
