Slow Unraveling

An empty coffee cup sits where you used to be
Streetlights stretch my shadow full of memory
The sofa holds the shape of where we used to hold tight
But silence fills the air echoing through the night
Photos on my phone yesterday's smiles burn too bright
Your gifted sweater pills like promises losing light
The forecast warns of rain"Remember your umbrella"
But who asks how to dry a heart drenched lonely fella
They say that time is the best healer of the soul
Then why do memories cut taking their toll
Each minute every hour carving deep inside
The marks you left the day you chose to say goodbye
This slow unraveling I cannot hide
We fit together perfectly a puzzle just complete
Now why am I alone here searching on the street
For scattered shards of love that cut my fingers raw
This endless agony this breaking of the law
Of"us forever"–slow unraveling
Unraveling faith unraveling"forever"
Leaving wounds that never heal not ever
Trapped inside these empty rooms you left behind
Watching love unravel piece by piece unwind
Passed the corner shop a familiar song begins to play
The tune you used to hum just ambushes my day
A meal for one now sits where dinner for two used to stay
Tastes like dust this loneliness I swallow every day
I fill the waking hours try to leave no space
But whispers of your memory fill every place
Reminding me of all the weight of what I lost
Like tides eroding shores counting the endless cost
This slow unraveling no matter what the cost
We fit together perfectly a puzzle just complete
Now why am I alone here searching on the street
For scattered shards of love that cut my fingers raw
This endless agony this breaking of the law
Of"us forever"–slow unraveling
Unraveling routines unraveling the glow
Leaving just a hollow ache that only grows
Trapped inside this silent film of yesterday
Watching love unravel fading clean away
Is the pain because I unravel far too slow
Letting every aching memory overflow
Tried to tear your shadow from the depths of me
Found it grown to moss rooted deep you see
This slow unraveling's my penalty
Slow unraveling This lingering pain
Slow unraveling Only I remain
The shards too sharp They cut the days ahead
Can't piece back the life Where you were mine instead
Slow unraveling The silent aftershock still spreads
