This Isn't About You

Loose Threads

I've always hate how others end their ties with anger, 

screams, hatred, and curses replaced the memories of genuine laughter,

breaking sentimental things as if you did not bought those together, 

as if you did not plan your future with each other,

refusing to listen one's side cause in both of their mind,

"between the two of us, my feelings are more valid, my feelings are the one that should be heard better."

It's funny how things that are sure magically changed in an instant,

the cuddling 24/7 turned into something cold and distant, 

the "10 years from now, we will have the most beautiful wedding,"

turned into making your favorite meal but only one person's eating, 

from naming future kids and browsing through the internet, looking for your dream house's design, 

to sleeping in the guest room or on the couch work just fine, 

from keeping track of memories and revisiting your go-to store,

to counting every payed bill arguing who contributed more. 

I promised to myself not to end our ties with a loud noise,

but now it's getting too quiet, not even a faint voice,

it ended without a proper closure and with no goodbye, 

we just stopped texting each other and I'm not sure why,

is it really over or maybe we both needed a little time and space, 

wait, did we even have a relationship in the first place?

Now I prefer a break up filled with so much arguing,

rather than a break up wherein silence is deafening.

Would you choose a love that ends with painful quarrel instead?

or a love that ends in a loose thread with a lot of words unsaid.
