you had the quiet of floorboards
and I heard the callous words
that you didn't speak
my heart's racing -
I long for my heart to
stop beating so harshly
when I'm around you
possibly heartwrenching -
the stories I'd never tell about
the glint in your eyes
and the tilt on your lips
my heart's stopping -
the vast stillness
where we used to be
I'm forgetting
the way you say my name too gently
