You are yelling,
you are screaming.
And so am I.

We are yelling and screaming
at eachother.
But neither of us
hear a
god-damn word
the other is saying.

Why me, oh why me?
The self-pity is sinking in.

Our anger at eachother
has run dry and
all that is left are
tears of black mascara
and shame.

The honesty has been
shouted out for us and
the neighbors to know.

Pent-up feelings from
the last seven months have
just been revealed.

A shared cigarette
on a weary park bench
calmed us down
while we sadly talked of a
new found dislike
we have
for one another.

There were sparse giggles
and a dozen more tears
as we reminisced of old times
we slowly came
to realize
there would be no
new memories to
speak of.

Lets admit it.
Last year is over
and trying to
relive
the good times
through
speaking of it all as if
it had all happened yesterday
won't bring any of it back.

Letting the past be
the past is hard.

But trying to hold on to us now is harder.
Is it really the end of 3 long years?
