Hurt

As you walked away,
You know how much you hurt me
All that time we spent together,
And you never bothered to tell me
About the life you left behind
With her.
Why didn't you ever tell me?
I gave you plenty of opportunities
But you didn't take any of them.
I didn't want to hear about it
From your other family at your funeral.
So now you're gone so I'll never get a chance
To ask you all the questions
That I'm dying to ask you.
I guess now I'll never know
Why you decided to hide them from me.
