Her


She left me without saying a thing,

I woke up to her gone.

I didn't know what to do,

I asked my dad.

He said she moved away...

She called...

She ran away from her problems,

How could she do this?

Did she expect me to accept it/

Be okay with it?

I still don't know,

I cannot forgive her.

I tried.

She made promises, 

Didn't keep them.

She lied,

Never owned up to it. 

I know her dark secrets,

She can't run from them.

They are starting to catch her!

Oh no!

They got her...

What now?

She comes to me for help,

I turn away.

Why would I help?

She never cared about me.

Why should I care for her?

She left me.

I didn't leave her...
