My Fear

My fear is you’ll stop loving me;

One day you’ll walk out without a word,

Without reason.

Shaking with apathy,

Trembling in doubt,

That there will be an end.

Left with all this love in my heart,

My chest aching,

Trying to love a motionless shadow,

A presence that doesn’t respond.

I fear you’ve already stopped loving me,

With one foot out the door,

You’ll leave your painful bruise on my life,

And all I can do,

Is wallow in loss.
