You left.
You left.
I don't get it.
You weren't supposed to come back.
At least… mom never did.
Years spent searching for someone who'd only turn their back.
-
I remember the day we first met.
You were sitting in the corner-
Book in hand,
Gaze immense.
You had been a distraction from even the shirtless boys
And at the time it was something I didn't get.
-
Your tone had been so cold towards me,
But a little softer around my sister.
At the time I was just relieved that
I found someone else who'd be there for her.
-
The day we became teammates,
You saw me when I was most heated.
I saw your smirk and decided to play it cool
But deep down I knew the spark hadn't seceded
-
And everything was great, you know?
I felt that we were becoming closer as the days went by.
I learned your secret, which compelled me to reveal mine...
You took it all to heart-
You gave me your time.
-
I feared what would happen the day I started seeing crazy things.
For a moment it was so scary-
I could've sworn you weren't going to believe me.
-
Between my younger sister who had always looked up to me
And the quick-witted sass queen,
I had felt that it was only you
Who I trusted to see me in full vulnerability.
-
Chaos erupted the next day.
You, missing.
Me, in pain.
My heart thumped quickly,
But no faster than I ran.
-
You, found.
Me, a sour taste in my mouth.
Him.
Disgusting, disgusting scum
Hurting you-
I needed him gone.
-
He caught me first.
That jerk.
A piece of me, gone.
Unconscious
Your friend said
He saw you run off.
-
Silence hung the next day.
You, missing.
Me, in pain.
My heart thumped quickly,
But no faster than the tears fell.
-
You, free.
Me, a sour taste in my mouth.
You.
Wonderful, wonderful you
were no longer so wonderful.
Maybe you needed to be far but
I needed you close.
-
Not one, but two pieces of me were gone
And they were never coming back:
My right arm,
And the girl who didn't love me back.
-
But now you're here.
You're…here.
I don't get it.
You weren't supposed to come back.
-
All that pent up anger
Turns to sadness
And forgiveness.
I had feared that you too would turn your back.
-
But you're not my mother.
You're my best friend.
And you made the promise that you're not going anywhere.
So all I can do now
Is believe in a happy end.
