Unhappy(marriage)

By HadassahDare

Every indifferent moment with you has shattered some fragile thing inside of me.
Every word from your mouth has left me bitter and raw.
Every single empty touch of your hand leaves me cold and lonely.
I think the battle may be done,
I don't know if I can try now
after failing for so long, every failure resonating through every cell.
Every single bit of meanness and neglect,
clawing my soul.
No, I don't believe you this time, or again.
It costs me so much to hope, to believe.
I just want to be let go, to live, to feel anything but
this downpouring of fear, lonliness, and loss.
