Silently Dying

Your words are

Daggers, slashing

Through my walls

All the way to this crashing,

Weak heart


Wounds open where you cut

But over time they

Become scars and shut

‘Till only traces tell of our decay


Your silence is

A machine gun

Or maybe a nuclear bomb?


Your silence is

A direct crit hit

It strikes once and kills


Yet you always

Pull me back from the brink

Like you can‘t part ways

Though you attack without a blink


Is it that you need me,

The reason you can‘t set me free?

The problem is that I too

Cannot live without you


I don‘t have the courage to say

Let‘s bid farewell,

End this cruel play

Guess we‘ll be together even in hell


Do you believe

This cold war can end?

If you could please

Stop this pretense


What keeps me here

In this place full of despair

Is a fear

Of being beyond repair


The me you destroyed,

The heart you tore to pieces

And patched back together

As you realized I was bleeding


It‘s so ugly now

That even I abhor to look at it

It‘s so unrecognizable

That even I don‘t know who it is


Could you tell me honestly

If this is really me?

Could you cease your silence

And make numb my senses?

Could you please just

Make me feel

Like I am whole

And help me

Fill this hole

Left empty

By your

Words
