A Slice of Remain

She doesn't know how he feels.
Piece by piece he becomes undone.
All she knows is the suffering he reveals.
She's wondering who's responsible but she's the one.

She couldn't break words with her lover
Even if her life depended on it.
She pushed him away forever.

Her heart yet yearns for the fellow.
Incognizant that she turned her back on what they had.
He ignores her every bellow.
She smiles, yet she's ever so sad.

To him, she no longer exists.
A mere phantom roaming the twilight.
Tears run down her visage amidst
Weeping herself to sleep tonight.

She wanders her mind,
But it's just shattered sentiments of his face.
She looks for a newfound love to unwind
But his love cannot be replaced.

He was out of line but, she was equally wrong.
She knew what they had was lost all along.
