We collided
Became immersed in the drama
Knowing it was wrong
I borrowed faith
You stole trust
We consumed hope
Made promises
We never intended to keep
Said words
We never felt
Gave life to personas
That never existed
My world was dark
The only color black
Yours…
Stuck in subtle shades of gray
Not enough energy between us
To sustain that flame
Time moved forward
We drifted apart
Left with only doubts
And unresolved issues
Knowing we both
Played the fool
Unexpected messages
Months later
A hushed voice
Whispers “I’m sorry”
And “Good-bye”
Sounds from our collision
Reverberate
apt words unfolding and ending a relationship…albeit with lasting reverberations.
