Nonexistent

©Stacie Sandall


nothing left but to pretend
pretend no tears are burning
pretend my heart's intact
pretend your words aren't maiming
pretend I can sleep again
pretend that I am eating 
pretend my soul is complete
pretend I don't hear your hating
pretend your love is still here
pretend that you can hear me
pretend I'm not on a leash
pretend I can think clearly
pretend that I still matter
pretend no tears are falling
pretend all feeling is gone
pretend your words are healing
