Letting go is as difficult as cutting glass
The chemistry has exploded and dissipated
Time has been unmerciful
Like a slow death in chains
the marriage is terminally ill
Like a cancer spreading and eating away
We need to withdraw
Exterminate For better or worse
Innumerable vicious words cut deep
with pain and tainted exasperated lies
Our Trust has been clipped like a bird’s wing
Secrets linger in the smoky stale air
Communicating is frightening
And listening is discouraging
The Love has been put out like a fire
What’s left is a silence between exfriends
Disclosing emotions shows weakness
Years of fighting has stopped our hearts
We are zombies the walking cold dead
Eyes swollen, egos bruised, and sickly pride
I’m folding my dysfunctional cards
Escaping is more victorious
I strive for a new life without you
A world with no abuse by your hand
splashing with confidence overflowing
Like a waterfall down a mountain stream
Feeling exhilarated because
Through dark depression Walls
I survived and without you
I saved myself
