5 Words

5 words and no explanation.
No closure.
No way to respond.
5 words and you're gone.
Was that all she meant to you? 
Was that all she was worth? 
5 words and then you walk?
All the promises,
All the plans,
All the late nights,
The music that held you in its sway
20plus years and a knock on the door
And 5 words tore it apart.
5 words broke her will
Broke her resolve
Called into question everything she thought she believed.
5 words
Just 5 words and a betrayal
Without even a kiss on the cheek.
Enjoy your pieces of silver
​As you dangle from your tree.
