That day
That milestone in your life
Was almost the death of me
and us
Whatever us exists in this life.
The pain still haunts me
Like a faded nightmare
It hollowed out my insides
Numbed my brain
The pit in my stomach
A hole of numbing pain
An array of indescribable feelings
The perfect mix of pain, guilt and heartbreak
But my heart was frozen
The wound was right in the gut
Pouring out blood
Your words blindsided me
And rightly so, every word was justified
But my heart, no
My soul
You crushed my soul with every syllable to her
Each word ringing true
The worst kind of pain
And you returned to me
Apologetically, knowingly
And we almost didn’t make it
Right then
Those moments that ran into days
Turned into weeks while the pain fades
But your words still burn in my brain
And I’m just not sure how strong I’ll be
Next time.
