"All That Remains"

 Both of us afraid to speak.
Your tears staining the floor
As they trickle off your cheek
While heading to the door.
Words slicing to your bones.
Your ring still on the chair.
My emotions cold as stone.
My lifeless eyes just stare.
The fires of our love faded
When I pushed you away.
My addiction made you jaded
As my soul died every day.
Instead of fighting my pain,
I buried myself in the bottles:
The pills made me insane;
Whiskey made me hostile.
Now, I'm afraid to speak.
My tears staining the floor.
It has been over two weeks
Since she walked out the door. 
My words stabbed her heart.
The damage will never heal.
No one to blame but myself
For destroying a love so real.
Her presence still remains.
As I weep silently in the dark.
Her ring hangs on a gold chain.
A reminder of her broken heart.
I chose the comfort of booze
Instead of battling the pain.
Her soul was not mine to lose.
An empty shell is all that remains.
