Your words,
Rip through my heart like a sharpened knife.
Your actions,
Speak louder than words;
As you push me aside
No wanting my love.
Why has it come down to this?
Your words are cold, and your gaze so empty.
All these years I took refuge,
In your warmth, your protection.
I looked up to you— For your courage, for your wisdom.
I need your acceptance and support,
And know that I will still be loved.
I feel the communication lacking,
It’s ripping apart our home
Like a wolf who feeds on his struggling prey.
I’m leaving now; please don’t try to stop me.
Maybe things will be better,
For you, for everyone.
Once I’ve left,
You won't have to deal with my stubborn nature.
Will you leave too and leave everyone alone?
Will you leave them behind?
Please pray tell,
Is all of this my fault?
Have I been so bad?
Have you the need to hate me
For all in the past?
Would you blame me if I never came back?
I see you sitting there not looking at me,
Have you some regrets for having me?
Things keep getting worse as the days pass by,
I see myself further and further apart.
You’re not trying to stop me,
I see that in your hollow eyes— For they say nothing.
You are staring blankly into space,
It breaks my heart into pieces— As my soul with anguish bleeds.
Then I am no more.
Exiled into the bitter taste of remorse,
With your silence— I seem to grasp it all.
And I’m sorry, if ever you believe me,
For all the pain I’ve caused over the years,
For all the hardships,
For all the tears.
I shall live my life in the shadows,
Whilst the doom of shame befalls upon me,
And the piercing blade of hatred
Unties us from any memory— of my being.
