I was born
The day I saw you
Not the day
I was conceived.
People celebrate their birthday yearly
And I celebrate it daily.
Not everything needs a poem
Sometimes
it’s already

good enough.
I was unhappy
and I know you felt it.
Because one day
with no warning,
you said goodbye.

Without looking back,
you just left me
on the side of the road.
With a shattered heart
and broken dreams.

Your last words to me
still ring in my ears,
before I go to sleep at night
and the moment I wake up.

"I can't stay.
Because if I do,
you'll walk away.
If there's one thing
I've learned in life,
it's to leave
before you get left."
