i withdraw

to you
the invitation of being by my side
no apologies but i must withdraw.
to the one i thought could be my soulmate,
a love,
a friend,
a wish come true.
i withdraw.
this pain inside,
this emptiness,
this feeling of nothing
despite your everything.
i withdraw.
the skies can only be so blue
before the clouds roll in
desperate to find shelter
solace
sanctuary
into myself i withdraw.
from you.
to me.
withdrawn.
it's been done.
gone.
nothing more to say.
