the saddest part is that you won’t give me the time of day.
as if all those promises of love,
care,
support,
even friendship,
dissipated as soon as you left me
out the door,
into your car.
i swear we have a lifetime of memories in there
as we do in every place
i watched as you left me that night,
i watched as you never looked back,
i watched with tears in my eyes and an empty heart.
and when i called you the next day,
i could hear the love being drained from your voice
after every second
every minute while on the phone with you.
it has been five weeks since i have heard your voice.
now, you can’t even tell me that you love me.
my heart shrinks.
because i know you don’t love me anymore.
and even though i try to hold on,
you’re slipping away.
those memories are fading
into an abyss where nothing returns.
