You Left Me in the Summer

my first attempt at traditional poetry, in this case a pantoum

You left me in the summer,

empty and alone.

Now I miss you more than ever,

and it kills me to the bone. 

Empty and alone,

I find solace in being invisible.

It chills me to the bone,

that I'm not sure this life is livable.

I find solace in being on my own,

but they still plead with me to talk.

I'm unsure if this is no longer home,

but I feel my heart is being mocked. 

They plead with me to talk,

they want me to cheer up.

But I feel I'm being mocked 

I need this all to stop!

I can't pick myself up,

I miss you more than ever.

I need this all to stop,

you left me in the summer. 

Author's Note

I feel like I want this poem to be longer but I am not sure where to add material. Any comments or critiques are welcomed.
