A lifetime
Wasted
Waiting
For you
To see,
To find,
To love
Me.
It takes
You
A second
To forget,
To dismiss,
To unsee
Me.
And time flies
For you,
But all my clocks
Are broken,
Stuck
In this one moment
Of stinging
Abandonment.

This poem is sheer brilliance and the pain of longing as we stare at abandonment, that can uproot not just our home but emotions!
