HEALING FROM ABUSE > Death of a Lover

​DEATH OF A LOVER

​Your coldness became too cold
Your ego - too proud
Your indifference - too poignant
Your silence - too loud

Your emptiness - too shallow
Your selfishness - too clear
Your lack of love - too obvious
Your backbone - too sheer

Your presence - too distant
Your carelessness - too deep
Your ignorance - too secure
Your heart - too cheap

My love became - too lost
My self-esteem - too sad
Your comments - too cruel
My protection - too fat

Your judgments – too LOUD
My own voice – way too low
Your reactions - too fast
My heartbeat - too slow
