I No Longer Love You

There was love

And then there wasn't 

I asked you why

But you did not hear me

I looked you in the eyes

But you did not see me

I cried out for you in the night

With you by my side

And you were not present

So I wept into my hands

Held my head

Gripped my hair 

And swore to myself

I'd never love you again

(Lies)

But the words rang true

One day 

One day it sank in

Like claws into my skin

Like needles pushing in

Like every cell in my body knew

I no longer love you
