Slipping Away

I was within your reach, but I wasn't reaching for you 
But when I reached for your soft fingertips, they were beyond me 
Leavening me alone 
You said you were reaching the whole time 
But You didn't notice I was already slipping away 
After a while you just left 
You couldn't stay here 
And I slipped farther away 
With hopes of a return from you 

You said you were reaching the whole time 

But You didn't notice I was already slipping away(poems go here)
