Breaking, tearing, shattered.
Words blur,
through the tears that slowly drip.
Music fades into the background.
Gasping.
Believing seems impossible.
Pretending seems unreasonable.
Your smiling face enters my blank mind.
Do I forget you?
I feel so alone.
Understanding why seems hopeless.
Finding the reason seems awkward.
Did you remember me?
Or was I forgotten?
Slipping slowly into uncertainty.
Jumping for comprehension.
I wondered,
Did my words mean nothing too you?
I did everything, but yet nothing.
Prevention was helpless.
You were selfish. Inconsiderate.
It’s not my fault.
You were playing with fire.
