Dumb Deaf and Blind

When I saw his name pop up In your phone. I felt something in me break & it hasn’t been right since. The way you call my name, The way you touch me. I knew it was over. I continued to go about, Remembering the person I once Knew. When you’d kiss me your grip Only got looser, while mine Became tighter. The receiving end of closed eyes In search of better times, Reliving a moment perhaps I’d never live again. Deep down I felt something in me Break, something only you had The power to fix. The voice in my head told me, The way you grabbed me the last Time we met told me. The way you tried to hide it The way I pretended not to see Told me. Your eyes told a familiar story, Not everything needs to be said. To be dumb deaf & blind, I love you that much
