And you missed it

by @iris-rebry

Yeah you said you Couldn't make it, But a tiny sliver of hope in my heart Festered itself down in the cardiac Muscle and I thought For one second, You might open the door with a Dramatic Whoosh And walk right in. And is stop performing Just so you could take a seat, Then is continue. But you missed it. You weren't there. And the sliver shattered into a tiny Splinters that I now have to pick Out with some tweezers Because you weren't there. You didn't hear the words I sang to the Crowd The tune I played to the audience, That I dedicated to you. Nope, You weren't there.
