You have been out of my life
For longer now than when you were in it
The anniversary quietly slipped by
Like the end of a low tide
When water returns to nestle in the coastline
There were no processions, there were no speeches
I did not utter your name
I rarely think about you anymore
When we last met, we were barely spеaking
Silence draped likе a scarf around your neck –
Loose, aloof, trying too hard to seem carefree
Your last words were never meant to be a parting gift
But they ripped right through my chest
“There are some things that cannot be repaired
When it breaks, it is broken for good
I know there is still love there, but
It hurts too much to bear”
I argued, I pled
I did not choose my words carefully
I would have said anything to make you stay
But you looked at the sidewalk instead
And we sat with it
I think now I never really knew you
