A Haunting Silence
Fogged eyes
Brimmed with tears
Legs welded still
By remnants of words
I stare into a void
Where you once stood
Ten seconds
Or ten hours
At some point you had to leave
You wouldn't stand there forever
Waiting for me to accept
That you would leave forever
You did not come to comfort me
Shield me
From your own words
The ones that ended us
Shattered the memories
The emotions
This isn't us
Not anymore
The promise of forever
Lasted only as long as your interest
I was only a toy
Entertainment for passing time
Used
Abused
This is not what I wanted
This is not what I expexcted
It's too late to fix it
It's too late to care
You can't mend
What isn't there
The silence
It will haunt me
I won't be what I was
I can't forgive what I had
