The Eulogy
Midnight has fallen on this love
Real life endings are never fairytale like; no happily ever afters; after my heart was captured you released it and didn’t tell me.
All the butterflies, sunshine and rainbows have dissipated, eliminating any hope I had of being happy with you. I feel blindsided and robbed; trying to push through my sadness, trying to push through my sobs.
Loving you is poisoning me, killing me slowly, dying lonely; if only I could pull the plug; I say that, but all I truly want is for you to kiss me and hug me and tell me that you’re sorry for all this shit.
I find myself checkin’ my phone, checkin’ my phone, checkin’ my phone, but you still haven’t called. Why haven’t you called???
My murderer and I’m an accessory; killing me softly as you wipe your finger prints off me, leaving no evidence that you were ever here other than my tears and broken heart. All the blame not on you cause I played my part. My part was allowing you to do what you do.
This thing I used to hold so dear, I now mourn; Woman scorned. This love has flat lined; victim of time… who pressed fast forward? So with black dress and veil covered face, I stare at space cut in earth reserved for us; we say good-bye to love, to trust, to lust, to passion, saying good-bye to us; Ashes to ashes, dust to dust.

You know I want to type something about Celie and Nettie saying goodbye right here but I guess it isn't appropriate.
Just know that as bad as it feels right now, the wound will heal and one day it will be a badge of honor.
Thank puddin'... your wisdom is much appreciated.
