The link weakens day by day,
as the sting gets worse.
Some sad bitterness to say,
in my heart it will hold.
The sweetness of your voice, lost,
gone with your silence.
My pleading gaze, you abhor,
as my own fate crumbles.
Slowly you kill me inside.
Little by little,
the promise of love dissolves,
as hate consumes it all.
