I knew...I doubt
As I waited in line at the airport to get on the plane that I knew could ruin my life, I found the courage to do it because I had no doubt in my mind that you loved me. As that same airplane landed in Memphis, a point were I could still turn back, I found the courage to walk to my next gate because I knew you loved me. When that plane landed in Seattle and I saw you waiting at the luggage claim, I was sure you loved me. But now, as I wait endlessly for a single word from your lips, I doubt it all. I doubt all the horrible things you said about your mother. I doubt all the nights you said you cried yourself to sleep. I doubt every single whisper of "I love you," that you sent into the electronic void of the telephone. I question why I committed a felony for you, because of you. I doubt whether ever word you said was a rope pulling me in further to your world. This blackhole that consumes everything, but allows nothing to escape. This abyss that wants everything for herself. I doubt if I made the right decision. I doubt if it was worth it in the end. I doubt if you had your fears but didn't tell me. I doubt if you ever loved me.
