And it is a chapter

And it is a chapter,

A simple chapter of a book.

The turning of a page, to create a story.

The flow of words, to fill the night.

It is a chapter.

At one point, I was a chapter.

I was a simple chapter for you.

Then you turned the page, and it was gone.

A simple blank start, for your story

But not quite for mine.

I am a chapter.

And you, may have been more

Than a simple chapter.

Perhaps, the first book in a series

I know that you're not the last

You're just the prologue

The beginning to my story

He's the book.

He's the one.

He's staying.

You're gone.
