My knee has been hurting for 5 days but I feel like I've been walking with a limp for more and it makes me miss your comfort back when I was your diamond and not your *****

and it reminds me of the time my arm couldn't move for 3 days
so I showered in the dark and cried with my hair in knots as I called your phone hearing your voicemail replay

this is the day before you left me the first time and went four hours away
as i watched you pack your belongings in front of my face
and I cried and you wanted to
but your heart was not phased

tell me, who finds solace
in memories that unravel;
that don't keep your heart laced?
