Come Back.

Like a human blowing a candle

you were the candle,

I was the human who blew the light of the candle,

making you disappear

all the light you once provided

the warmth you once emanated

the goodness you've sweetly dispensed me with

a single trace of your scent

nowhere to be found.

Months have passed,

head still turning left and right

back and front

always hoping to see a familiar sight

only to realize that

even hoping too much

won't ever bring you back to me.
