What happened between us,

Between you and me?

Why did you run away when the demons

In your head were screaming your name and clawing

At your skin?

Can't you fight to defend yourself anymore,

Or were you fighting for me?

Do I really want to know these answers, 

Or will they just break my fragile heart

Like you did?

Why are you marking your beautiful skin

With the hideous red gashes?

Will you be able to come visit again one day, 

Or is it too much memories?

I miss you, you know.

But you don't care,

Now do you?

Do you continue to talk to me

Day after day because you love me

With all of your broken, beating heart,

Or because you know I need you in my life?

These are all the things in which I

Never said to you for the best.

But now I wonder,

What you didn't say to me.


The author's comments:

I remember not being able to finish a sentence before they left and I keep thinking of all of these questions and hoping that one day, I might just be able to ask some of them. They constantly haunt my mind and make chills run up and down my spine, causing me to shiver without their touch.
