Back in the closet

completely and utterly heartbroken

She leans over and all I can think about are the sweet nothings she's about to whisper in my ear

Instead, she just looks at me

Eyes so empty

Skin so pale

Face so lifeless

All I want to hear is I love you too; but no

The only thing she can muster in a small raspy voice is I'm sorry

That's when she decided to walk away forever

Never looking back

How will I go on? 

The sound of her voice gives me chills

Hearing her name is heart breaking

I never thought that she would be the one

The only one who could have my heart if she wanted it

The only one to stomp on my heart repeatedly with kind words

The same kind words that are equivalent to knives in my back

Back in the closet, I go

This is heart-wrenching & those last words "back in the closet" close it perfectly...but I hope..in real this is not the case..

The most heart breaking line to me is "back in the closet I go"

[Alicia Santos]

Heartbreaking read. Love this line....

The same kind words that are equivalent to knives in the back

That says it all...nice one.

it's hard to see nothing in the eyes of someone that used to be everything.

Good write.

enjoyed the emotions behind this piece
if your feelings are back in the closet ...don't lock the door
let them heal of course but a locked door is hard to break into
thank you so much for sharing
