Almost Someone

I am almost someone,
you were waiting for.
 
I seek forgiveness hoping
you may recall what
I have long since forgotten.
 
I have a headache—
I am tired.
 
There is a heavy hush
under the skin.
No pull, just weight.
 
Some may say that it’s the
silence. The way in,
how you say my name
like it belongs to
someone else.
 
And somewhere in all this
quiet undoing.
I’ve not only lost you,
I have now lost
myself too.
