Falling Apart

His eyes,
Bled an image of her,
Tainting my napkin at dinner,

Silence has filled the room,
Making my presence undesirable,
Oh, how my heart burns in resentment,

I stand before him,
Weak at heart,
Still hoping to find a trace of our past,

But one cannot hold the wall by itself,
In time ones strength wears out,
Finally tumbling to the ground,

I walked behind his shadow,
Kept my pain isolated in the dark,
Built my whole world around him,
Just to see it fall apart.
