Wish you goodbye

by Pondering Thoughts Of Nothing   Jan 7, 2007


I sit here in your silent presence,
It's not worth the fight.
We cross paths,
exchange glances as we pass each other in the hall,
But it is like i don't really know you;
Like there is someone new with me now.
The house is silent,
Your glares slice through the room and burn a hole in my heart.
I almost long for the yelling and screaming,
glass shattering on the wall.
I miss it when we argued,
because at least then I actually talked to you.
I get a grasp of something,
You quickly whisk it away and claim it your own.
I feel like somethings missing,
I know somethings dreadfully wrong.
I lie there in bed, and stare at the blank ceiling,
and feel as if I am staring into those clouded blank eyes of yours.
We lay there,
and without saying a word you just
get up.
The front door slams
and before I could get my foot out the door,
You were starting up the car.
I run towards the driveway,
But in the blink of an eye you pull out of the way.
I run after you on the never ending road...
Running
Running
Running
Time slows down, and you speed up.
an in a flash you turn the corner,
never to be seen again.
Without even a wave goodbye or a glance at my desperate face.
I stand there and scream.
Scream at the top of my lungs.
I collapse down onto the road
and begin to endlessly cry.
I feel so empty now,
For the only thing I loved,
Rode off before my very eyes.
I stare at the corner of the dirt path,
wishing you'd reappear
And in the dirt I trace out the words,
"At least let me wish you goodbye."
