your words echo in my head


"i just can't do this anymore.

you are not the man i fell in love with.

you have changed so much, 

i don't even know you anymore."


your words echo in my head


"please say something,

anything.

let me know you are even here.

we used to talk about everything, but lately.

all there has been is silence.

please ...

if you still love me,

talk to me."


your words echo in my head


"i'm sorry.

i love you.

i always have and i always will.

i have done everything i can.

i don't know what else to do.

please forgive me."


your words echo in my head

as the door closes behind you

"i am sorry too, my darling.

but, i have nothing left to give.

i just wish i could tell you.

i only have 6 months to live."
