2:47 a.m.

I see the word “love”

and I feel nothing

beautiful words and letters

and I feel nothing

I used to feel the flutter

the stutter

the rhythmic beat pumping in my chest

every time i even heard your name

because to me,

you were love.

Now all I feel is an empty void

I shutter

my heart beat is constant

I flinch at the thought of you

now you are the very opposite of “love”

I once lived because of you,

Now I am dead, because of you.
