Victim of Neglect

23/09/06

Why does it seem like the spark is gone, 
A love once fiery, now feels withdrawn, 
You think you can just fucking forget, 
Leaving our passion to slowly reset.

(Does it mean I'm not enough? Have I lost your gaze? Do I even matter to you anymore? Have I been replaced?)

Why does it seem like the flame has died,
In the ashes of neglect, we try to hide,
You think you can just sweep it away,
But the void between us is here to stay.

(I can't be replaced right? Maybe they're just in a mood...should I go comfort them?)

Why does it seem like our bond's grown cold, 
In the silence of indifference, stories untold
You think you just move on so free,
But the scars of neglect remain in me.

(Should I speak up? Is there any chance of new weather? Or is it time to accept our love in retrospect?)

Why does it seem like we're drifting apart,
In the wake of neglect, a fractured heart,
You think you can just leave it behind,
Yet the echoes of neglect linger in my mind.

(What went wrong?)
