"This is where I lost you,the moment when you finally decided that my love could never be enough..."

“

This is where I lost you,

the moment when you

finally decided that my love

could never be enough

to make you stay.

All those moments in which

we only ever clawed at the

surface of things, speaking

words that didn’t need to be

spoken and omitting ones

that we so desperately

needed to express.

This is where I lost you,

the moment when open

palms met the mouth

of a decaying sun,

and where shadows slanted

until there was no ground

left to cover.

All those moments in which

we only ever looked at the

exterior of things, we did not

realize that we were beginning to

fold away from one another,

like two flowers reaching

for different skies.
