As I lie here in silence,
It all sets in.
My pain, my suffering,
My sorrow.
You hurt me bad,
You broke my heart.
You did the one thing
You promised you wouldn't.
Did we get too close?
Or did you drift too far?
To deal with these feelings
Takes more strength than I have.
Is it a mental state?
Or physical state?
Whichever it is,
I'm still left here,
Lying in silence.
Thoughts going through my head,
Wondering what I did or didn't do.
I wrote this poem
As a way to express myself.
Where do I go?
What do I do?
Do I take this as a lesson?
Or do I take this as a speed bump in our path?
Something put out the spark.
I wish I could light it back up,
But all I can do is lie here
In silence with the reminder of the one I love...
Wondering What Went Wrong
Silence
