The Way You Left It

I tip toe inside carefully

the room feels empty and cold without you here

abandoned

your faded teddy bear sleeps on your bed

your pink sheets already seem duller

there's still piles of smelly clothes on the floor

it's the same way you left it

I haven't been brave enough to touch a thing

the whole house feels lonely

without you

at least you're happy

I can deal with it

as long as you come back to visit

    I'm in middle school, and we already have a cell phone ban in place. If someone is caught with their phone during the school day, they can get reported and get a detention.
