Goodbye
Folder:
Blah Is this pain supposed to hurt this much
I dread the return of a nothingness you and I can’t quite describe
But at least I try.
What is wrong and what is right?
I no longer know the difference between what is and what I would like to be
I’ve given up on trying to figure it all out.
I sank to my knees in between yours
Hoping that you would take my head in your merciless hands
To tell me that it would all be ok.
You looked at me without emotion touching your face
As I wanted to cry all those pent up tears you had never seen before
But somehow I held them all in again.
I’m too old to feel this kind of pain again
As it wracks my bones until they want to slowly shatter
Just so I can savor the pain again.
I turn away for the last time
Hoping you don’t see the tears slipping away from my skin
And I say goodbye underneath my breath.
