The Loss

She’s long gone

I didn’t even know

She left

With my feelings left to show.

The sadness in her eyes

That awful depressing smile,

Stroking her hair

As I sat beside her for a awhile

No one even noticed

When her lips met my cheek,

My face is wet

From the wretched eyes that leak,

We embraced

tightly – one last time.

Wiped tears.

I want her to be mine.

Made a promise

That’ll she’ll return one day,

Hope swelled

But she is already too far away.

She walked off

Not even looking back,                                                                    

With her she took

My heart enclosed in her sack

She stole it –

And I let her be

I’ll never be able to forget her

But she’ll forget me.
