i thought you left,
but when i saw you
again it was like you
had never…
now i know
you were gone
before i ever
got there
being there was
your way of being
gone from some
other way of living
we were never
fully together,
the feelings
it felt like
we shared
were figments
and ghosts
the loss i felt
was nothing
compared
to the love we
never shared
why do i feel
i should
apologize?
