How was I to know?

miathompson Poems

We were the summer clouds That provide the right amount of shade So that we do not burn the earth We were two paints Mixed perfectly together to form an entirely new color We were the everything that most people wanted to have Yet most of all We were everything I could’ve dreamed of Somethings changed The way you look at me is just not the same You can see the hurt on my face The love that’s gone & not replaced Everyday I spent loving you You spent wondering if you loved me Every time I put my everything into us You kept taking away pieces and pieces of me I thought I heard the sound of love and At first it sounded like cheers and happiness But now I realize I only heard the sound of it’s absence I wanted to say goodbye to you Before you left Yet how was I supposed to know You were leaving in the first place
