She left

She left without warning today

She had cleaned her room and all the clothes were taken

Nobody could ask why she had run away

Nobody could stop my heart from breaking

Should have seen it in her face, 

Should have seen in the scars

She'd felt she was losing the race

She was trying too hard

Always looking too far forward to want to be here

Always making plans and not wanting to wait

Her disappearance was something I'd always feared 

But I had no Idea she'd leave today

I'd always planned for years and years

I'd never planned her running from me

Neither of us wanted to be here

Neither of us were ever serious, really

Until today

Because She left with no warning, no idea where she'd gone

I hope she'll come back, I wish she'd taken me along

For some reason when I read this I felt like you were speaking of your mother, especially at the end. Not knowing anything about you or your family life, I won't presume to trust my own interpretation...all I can say is this is a very well penned piece and I thank you for sharing your raw emotions with us.

[Annabelle Lee]

Im so with you Annabelle as I read this. I sometimes wonder is friendship worth all the heartache then I tell myself Im being dumb -
I wish you well and your friend too.

This is very good! I hope everything works out in the end, because this seems like a very personal poem.

THank you, Joshua

[Baby Ricochet]

That's a tough break kid. I hope she's okay.

[Annabelle Lee]

THank you, ricochet. It is metaphorically she didnt really leave it just seems so. Big fight recently

[Nia Hope]

Really powerful and I hope she is okay whoever that may be

[Annabelle Lee]
