And so you're gone,
And a torrent of
tears and grief 
Come flooding in to
Fill the black void you left
Inside of me.
And you're gone.
Your leaving doesn't
Surprise me,
I knew you would go
Before you knew yourself.
What has me bewildered
Is how you went from loving
To leaving
In so short a time.
Not to say it doesn't hurt, 
The pain is deep,
Deeper than any
Other I've ever felt.
Your words cut through
My chest like a knife
Through soft butter,
And tear my heart to shreds.
What hurts almost 
As much as
The fact that you're leaving,
Is how you are going.
Without a care, 
Without a touch. . .
Without a kiss goodbye.
