< present moment>

yesterday we were over; I felt everything.

it was never your intention, but you hurt me beyond my core.

your touch, what I craved in utter silence,

your voice, what subdued my inner termoil.

that night, there was a moment of violent screams and tears;

the only control I knew I had to keep my feelings at bay.

now, I’m alone; I can’t feel anything.

----- why did you leave me?
