The words
They lack meaning
Yet they continue to repeat
Like tapping on a drum
Melodic and timed
Yet so imperfect
Empty sounds of years replaying
Ive said a million times
Yet it still means nothing
A rhythm matching my heart
Heavy it weighs in my chest
Yet there's no life, no pulse
There's no more love in
"I love you"
My world is different
A new place
A new name
Yet still just the same as last year
Still the same crushing sorrow
Still the same grief as last year
I step out into a cool summer night
The air fills my lungs and soothes my anxiety riddled body
I walk out and feel the calm breeze on my torn up skin, wrapping around me like it's comforting my wounds
I've grieved this relationship a million times, a million ways, yet it was always somehow easier because I knew you would come back. I knew how to play my cards so I could be assured that you were hooked as much as I am.
