with no regrets,

she told me

she didn't want to be swallowed

whole into his world and lose every part of herself

she held so dear.

the parts that were present

at the times he wasn't.

she didn't desire for his love

as much as he took for granted hers.

and she knows it to be as true as i do

that one day

when she will no longer remember his name

he will be stuck whispering it

at the midnight hours

into the same ears

he lured into his life

to fill the void that came

as soon as she left.
