When the glow goes out
I thought that as long as I could bear it, I could keep her safe.
She is in so much pain that I dare not speak out or let her suffer.
I can only use indifference and concealment to push her away little by little.
She was uneasy, she was probing, she asked me the truth with red eyes,
But I cruelly said the most hurtful words.
Trust collapsed, love shattered,
She turned around and walked away decisively, leaving no room for error.
I stood guard in the empty room and realized:
I protected her, but lost us.
When the glow goes out, only endless regret remains.
