The shadows of your empty promise
is forever echoing in my cold heart.
I am now certain that all you want now
is to successfully shut me out.
How was I to know you would be changing,
leaving your promises beyond meaningless?
When a slight fear whispered
and I ran to you for comfort,
there was an instant chill
of emptiness in your arms,
and I wish I could deny
what that felt like.
I can't process
how you could be my friend
if you are always missing when I fall.
I know you say that you are there,
but you used to be much closer than this,
you used to be there when I called.
I want to escape into your hidden space
and feel like I belong again.
Only, I am certain you want us to remain lost.
So instead,
I let go of the memories,
fold them all away
without touching the emotions within them.
How was I to know you would be changing,
into something I would be craving to forget?
