Where Love Went to Die
Some Losses don't Shatter You, they Hollow You Out

I Kept Waiting for You
1.
You didn't leave all at once.
You faded-
slowly, painfully,
like a song losing its last note.
2.
I used to feel you in the space
between my fingers,
in the way my name sounded
softer in your mouth.
But then, your hands grew distant,
your voice turned into an echo of
someone I used to know.
3.
I kept waiting for you to come
back,
for your love to find its way home.
But love, real love,
doesn't need directions.
4.
Now I sit with the ghost of us,
tracing your absence in the sheets.
And the worst part?
You're still here.
just not with me.

Wow, this hits deep! You really nailed that feeling of love fading slowly but still lingering. The way you described the absence and the ghost of what was is so relatable. Beautifully done!
