You Whispered By Forgetting To Say Goodnight

You Whispered By Forgetting To Say Goodnight

You whispered,

  but I needed a scream to feel alive.

 You whispered,

  and I told myself that love could survive.

 You whispered,

  and in your silence, I tried to thrive.

 You whispered,

  and I cried — 

    every 

        single 

            night.

 You whispered,

  and my friends said our love had died.

 You whispered,

  and I told them all they did was lie.

 You whispered,

  and I kept sending love, begging for a reply.

 You whispered,

  and I told myself not to cry.

 You whispered,

  leaving me to wonder why.

 You whispered,

  while I begged for this not to be goodbye.

 You whispered,

  and I broke, still trying to get by.

You whispered,

  until there was nothing left to try.

 You whispered,

  and I watched your love run dry.

 You whispered,

  and I needed the sun—

   but you were only sky.
