the moon pulls
our love's tide

today
your sea
flowed into me

you dug
a little deeper

your essence
became me

daily distractions
over time
are forcing a fade
of my focus
on you

however
against
my will

to you
this
is already
planned out

it's everything
we expected
it's a mimicking
of the same scene
over
and
over
until
it's just a word now
without any meaning
only the boring context
we built around ourselves

well i reject
your worn path
that goes blindly to the grave
your hollow words
that didn't mean anything
until
someone else
said them to me

now
i know
just how empty
we are

what does
your love look like?

i suspect
you don't
even know

but
don't you want to?

if this is your love
then
i don't want it

can't you just
stop
being in denial

open your **** eyes
and help me
say the words
i haven't been able to

but i guess
what could i expect
from the person
who thinks
they still love me?

this burning
wonder
does it bother you?

push you
like it pushes me?

do you even wonder?
how i am?

do you care?

are you still there?

...?
