the search for answers

"But only finding more questions in the silence..."

Font Size

Sitting on the front porch swing

Rocking to and fro

Lost in her thoughts

As the cool breeze blows, chilling her to the bone

She pulls his shirt tighter around herself

As she reads through their old messages

Searching for answers

Trying to understand the silence

His scent surrounds her

Not finding any reasons

The tears stream down her cheeks

Leaving them to stain

As she closes her eyes tight

Not knowing or understanding

How or why things changed overnight between them

She walks inside, looking at her reflection in the mirror

She sees the answer looking back at her

She just wasn’t good enough for him
