I have nothing left to write, not even to say to you.
I kept my heart on my sleeve and I fell deep.
Thinking, that once you saw it you’d understand.
But all you did was take it away and bury it.
Watching me, die slowly inside you never bothered to return it.
Just afraid, apologizing hoping it would slow down the process.
Nothing will ever be the same.
I will never be the same.
I blame you for all that is left to come.
You were a waste of my time.
I should have let you rot in my memories...
Never to turn around until you were gone...
To permanently erase ever meeting you you’d just be nameless.
Unknown
In the shadows…
