Challenge
How do you say I don't love you anymore??
How do you break a heart that you loved for so long but no longer do?? How do you tell a spouse of 13 years that the life y'all built isn't what you desire anymore?? Raw and ruthless or soft and kind... or do you just stay giving pieces of yourself away daily?? Just give me emotion,, let me feel your guilt, pain, freedom.. tag me pls
I wait for the second longest silence
we’ve been drowning in
since you arrived
I try to speak
but my tongue is frozen
firmly in its place
my chest on fire
and my heart threatening
to jump out of my chest
and into your hands
I... I... I...
is all that seems to want to
come out of my mouth
You finally look me in the eyes
it’s the coldest it’s ever felt
between us
“I just don’t love you anymore”
You say
And then you go
As quickly as you came
And I wait for the second longest silence
That’s been in the room since you left
And whisper
“I do”
