Reduction
Reduction
The emptiness faded for just a moment, before it came back in full vengeance.
A gaping maw of silence for a ghostly presence left unmentioned, but never unloved and untended.
Watching lips move, mouthing empty words.
Everything reduced to the love left unspoken.
Bereft of hope unseen. Feeling the cold lies flow through pale veins.
Until the shell becomes the truth, and the myth becomes the reality.
Bridging the canyon that was the past, for the dream of a future, only to find the crumbled scraps left tattered and torn, but never enough to wipe the unshed tears.
