How Could He Leave?

In my grief I write.

I watched him 

pack 

a few bags;

Nowhere near 

what I know 

he owns.

Is he 

that desperate 

to leave 

me?

Is he that 

eager to leave 

our home?

Author's Note

After years of confidence in the relationship, a person is liable to do anything.

'turn your pain into poetry.' i don't know who said that, but they're the words i live by.

Love disappeared. Tell me about your love?

[Ern M. Yoshimoto]

we met at work. she said no. i tried to kill myself.

[camac1994]

How? Why? Would you do it again?

[Ern M. Yoshimoto]

no, no. love like that only comes once in a lifetime, thankfully. what i did: it might not be counted as an attempt, but i picked a spot to jump off, after calculating the height etc. i didn't go through with it tho, and the reason for that is another huge story. i'm not so lovesick any more. last year i asked my best friend to marry me. she said no too, but i got over it right fast.
