I left you alone on the bed and watched you. You
Mirrored me like I had, looking up and wondering
If tonight was the ultimatum. The mind is loud when
It looks inside at its reflection, like the echoes of all
The fences you’ve ever drawn your hands across, ear
Tipped down like a cup to gather those hollow sounds
And keep them for yourself. Like a cup with the last
Drop down your parched throat, my hand holding it,
I smiled like I was the one drinking. I apologize for
Not picking up, but I forgot you were the one calling
And mistook the sound for waiting again and again.
I watched, then left you a lighter on the nightstand
With a piece of paper that said goodbye. There was a
Nice morning breeze flowing in through the hinges, so
I followed it and took a walk down the sidewalk to
My car. I opened the door and drove away, because
Down the road, there was a pleasant sunrise and a
Blue spring sky waiting for me, and I wanted that.
Woah, this is really nice! Thank you for sharing!
Wow. Love that!
