Poem 14

Dust

She stops.
She really thought I knew.

When did it change?
I told him everything
those things I wouldn't tell you
and we always had fun
always talked always laughed
So it must be on purpose now
how he's run away
run to you
leaving me in his dust

Everyone says time heals
but I know he'll never be back.
I may see that smile of his
but it's always because of you.

If he missed me
he would respond.

  2. It's not about me. I wrote it only a few days before posting it here - it was a favor for a friend. I interviewed her and then wrote it.
