emotionless

alone in the night she cried out,

“you’re better off without me”

as she pushed the world away.

the sky rolled over, the moon stopped shining, and her lungs became still. she was only focused on five lonely words.

“i’ll never be good enough”

as she took her final breath the stars fell back into place. she couldn’t help but have the thought of the words they’ve left behind.

“nobody will ever love you”

and so, her heart became laced with

“goodbye”

because she was too emotionless to not let go.
