left

Written 15/07/04.

you left me -
left us.
it was unexpected
yet i was not surprised
or maybe just numb.
i was mad,
i was puzzled.
how could you leave,
when you claimed to love us?
i wonder how he felt
i wonder how she felt -
your closest friends here.
now it feels
you've never been here
yet you stay on
in us who knew you.
and really.
that's all
that's left.
