I glanced at you with hazy eyes
could feel you getting distant
barely awake I watched the door
that closed within an instant
my brain was racing with words to say
to stop the hurt I would feel
words to make you stay
promises unreal
So I uttered none and let you go
I never even stirred
to keep this up, for both of us
the pain, the doubt, the fear
would only stiffle what spirit was left
our foolishness.....absurd
