You and I

sat for an entire hour in silence,
because I didn't say a word
and you didn't say a word

I was having one of those days
one where I close my eyes, focusing on nothing but being gone
where everything I see, I want to destroy,
where I dare myself to hold my breath until I black out,
where I see myself for what I am - a ghost
with cold fingers, and a dead stare

And you left like you do everyday
but that's not what's important.
No. Not at all.

it's that I let you leave.

You and I sat for an entire hour in silence
because I didn't say a word
and you didn't say a word.

We've sat 5 months in silence,
because we won't say a word.
