No time left

Oh, I have plenty of time darling I just have no time left for you, I don’t care what you are doing, Have done or are going to do. I don’t see you as a husband now Heck, I don’t even see you as a friend, Just so you are sure- it’s because of you We have reached this bitter end. They say absence makes the heart grow fonder But you were absent with your heart and mind, I tried so hard and for so long to keep us going -Part of me dying each time you were so unkind. Every single night I spent crying Waking every day feeling further away, Praying the distance was a nightmare But reality would hit with the things you would say. I would have done anything to save us But you wouldn’t give me ten minutes of your time , Yet , it’s me who feels this loss With the deepest , darkest sadness down inside. But now I feel angry and betrayed Tears are something I no longer have left, I feel alone, belittled, damaged And emotionally bereft. So, I now withdraw the offer Of always being there, Of wanting to be with you Sharing love, hope and care. I’ll no longer be there waiting Hoping you will choose me too, It’s hard enough for me to admit it And it’s something you just weren’t strong enough to do…..
