Every time I asked where we were going,
you offered me a mapโ€”with no destination,
no roads, no light.

Your eyes used to blaze like firelightโ€”
now they dim like dying stars; cold, distracted, almost gone.

You were once full of life beside me,
but I watched you vanish in small, daily deathsโ€”
of words unspoken,
dreams withheld,
promises stalled.

Even when I felt myself fading,
just to fit beside your growing absence.

It wasnโ€™t anger that made me walk away,
it was the ache of knowing
I had become a ghostโ€”
haunting someone who no longer sees me.
