The lie that cuts but does not draw blood, the heart not broken but weighted in simple expectation and acceptance of the inevitable conclusion that should burn to the core but does not. I am absent of the love that should care, and mostly I do not. My mind sees the indiscretion without bias or blame as if not involved even though it s the same mind, heart and soul lied to in the past by others in the same way that resulted in agony and in rage and in the pain of an eternally broken heart. Today it seems it’s just to be expected. It seems par for the course, as in so what….. I’m not in love so it does not matter.
No more of a loss than that of a friend that has moved away, or quit calling. No more than the loss of comfort and touch. This is destined to disappear anyway. This wind has blown this way before and I am too numb to care for a shield or even shelter from the storm. So be it.
The end.
