Famous Last Words

Silence.
Louder than any sound.
Louder than the words left unspoken the last time we met.
And I can still remember your famous last words.
“Die, Die, die.”
Echoing forever inside of these walls in my skull.
A never ending headache.
That’s what your voice brings me now.
Our time spent together is all so far away.
Like a forgotten memory.
A memory I’d kill to lose, but pray that I’ll never forget.
So many words shared between the two of us
All boiled down to nothing.
Silence.
Empty feelings and empty minds.
And the only thing holding them together
Are your famous last words.
“Die, Die, Die.”
