That Single Word

Today I texted you Wondering what was wrong And why you were avoiding me at school. "We need 2 talk" I hesitantly sent And waited for your reply. "Ok" you said, "Lets talk." So I asked you why You were acting so strange, And did you know how much You were hurting me? Then I waited a minute And sent you another. "Do u... not want me anymore?" It was several minutes before you answered And even then it was vague. A single word, Small, yet powerful: "No." I took a deep breath And cried a thousand tears Because with that single word, Small, yet powerful, My heart was shattered And my life ended.
