the silent voice

with nothing to say my head is full of thoughts. lingering stains fill my mind and words with salt touch my open wounds. they closed right up when i asked you to leave and everything i had forgotten i disliked about our relationship i remembered and that was enough for me. i waited for love to resurface but my own resistance reminded me i had had enough. and places i was asked to fill were now empty and you took from me my happiness in order to make yourself feel better. but i laid in your stains and i cried in your absence.
