Midnight Thoughts On a Failed Marriage

How can you hear something stop?
How do you know when it’s over?

We were once lovers
Friends

I gazed at his sleeping face

And looked into my heart
I saw grey shadows of silence
Floating in the emptiness

That was when I realized 
I had to leave
‘Lest I completely disappear
