No Promise of Tomorrow

I suppose when they stop saying
that they love you today,
there's not much hope
left for tomorrow.
I remember the day
she stopped telling me
that she loved me,
at least the day
when I became conscious
of her lack of
favorable words.
Perhaps she had stopped
a day or so earlier
without my heart
noticing the loss.
And I remember leaving
her a message on her cell phone,
for she was far away that day,
and many other days. My message...
"I have noticed that you don't
tell me that you love me anymore."
And to this day, she hasn't
confirmed it or denied it.
So began my sorrow,
upon the day she gave me
no promise of tomorrow.

"Where did you go, I miss you so.
Seems like its been forever
since you've been gone."...Fort Minor

A well-written poignant lost-love piece, James.

I have experienced this as well and you wrote it so beautifully. I enjoyed reading and remembering.
