The Hell Of No Words

I have been in a wordless hell
for a while now,
not that I have not heard from you
but the words have no tone,
no inflection, nothing of yours
to make them different
from a thousand others that come my way.

And yes, I know the reasons
but when I am twisted in the purgatory
of a lonely sheet trying not to remember your kiss,
I wonder if it bothers you a bit
if you need me at all,
or thats just a pretty thing you say
so my heart will not break
and you will have time
to make a graceful exit.
