i'm sorry for running away.

the truth is, i can't handle people anymore.
i want to be alone. i want to taste the
silence,
feel the heaviness of my
self-imposed isolation bearing on my shoulders.

i know i promised never to go, but you
were the one who left first.

sometimes, its hard to
see anything around me and i feel
alone in these crowded rooms we reside in.
i'm empty and i miss you.

but i've felt this way so many times before.

and what i've learned is that this never disappears.
"this".
because it doesn't have a name; you can't pin it down
with a label.
it's just i-cared-about-you-and-i-loved-you-and-i-still-do-and-
always-will.


eventually, i think, this becomes a quiet whisper in my ear that
appears at any sudden moment and it says "i wish you were here".
you were the one who left me first.
