A Path to Nowhere

I don’t look at her

as I walk away

Much like I did to him

Unlike him

I can feel the pain from you

feel it

as if it were my own

It settles in my bones

in my nerves

engraving itself on

every inch of my skin

The small part of me

is screaming

wailing

to go back to her

Make up for lost time

lost love

But the bigger part

That swell of my heart

Is demanding me not to

that this will lead nowhere

this will go nowhere

In the end

there is nowhere left to go
