unwanted

when you asked me why

i would do such a thing 

i watched you cry

over nothingness 

that used to be 
something but is now only Me

i had no clever answer 

or anecdote 

only the truth 

that you keep evading 

the same way your eyes do when i try to meet your gaze

as i ask, 



why did you leave me?

    I wait for a phone call 
    but whos?

    the answer 
    should be no 
    you should not be proud
