I’M LEAVING, WHY AREN’T YOU STOPPING ME?

Those silver moonlit nights

Those grassy evening walks

Those starry twinkling skies

Where have they disappeared?

 

Those summers of scorching love

Those blankets in frosty winters

Those TV dinners on drizzly days

Why are there no encores?

 

Those hungry smooches

Those tight, warm hugs

Those shared cappuccino cups

Where are they hiding?

 

Those rainbow promises

Those electric dreams

Those butterscotch ice creams

Why have they withered away?

 

Those shocking indiscretions

Those numbing infidelities

Those endless arguments

When did they shred our bonds?

 

These deafening silences

These silent touch screens

These gaping distances

Wherefrom have they sprung?

 

I’m leaving why aren’t you stopping me?
