162 : loveless

stepping out of that car
on the morning of January 5th
empty coffee cups and sand in the floorboard
you stood in the middle of the road and stretched
looking at my wounded soul in the drivers seat
you didn't say a word

you saw how shattered i was
you saw my lowest point
agony riddled my eyes
sorrow soiled my hair

and walk into that house
without turning your shoulder
to watch me drive away

you are loveless
