Oblivion - by Sara Borkowski

You quietly torture me into oblivion.
Your silence speaks louder then words.
Your lack of facial expressions cuts to the quick,
more then any harsh word or harsher actions.
Your monosyllabic answers leave me befuddled and confused.
I’m left feeling emotionally abused.
Things would be alright for me if it wasn’t for this insane attraction.
This power you lord over me.
Just thinking about it makes me sick.
You’ve listened to all I had to say, but you’ve never heard.
I wanted you as my knight in shining armor, mychampion,
instead you quietly torture me into oblivion.
