i'm sleeping
on the left side
of my bed
to take up the space
that you left empty
because you left me
with no kind of backup plan
i was left to miss you
and you were left to wonder
and in the end
all that is left
is left hand turn signals
in the car i'm driving
parking on the left side of the road
where i walked you to your door
and left you to go inside alone
it was a fine first date
but i remember thinking
"i shouldn't have left her so early"
and now i hope you think the same
i got stuck in the revolving door
into your old apartment building
it reminded me of you
i used my left hand
to push it forward
and felt as though
this is where i would be
for the rest of my time without you
i left the building
without a vocalized thought
but in the back of my mind
the only thought that was left
whispered
"why can't i be right for once?"
