Poetry: Leave me alone

by Angel Liu

Created on: June 06, 2008

Leave Me Alone

In this room
on the phone
across countries
over oceans
under sheets,
I hear your feet
tap, tapping away
getting farther each day

as you leave me
alone, with love
half measured,
messages late,
forgotten dates,
with I'm not sure
and I don't know,
with maybe, perhaps,
or oh you'd believe me
sweetheart
if only
you could see me

but i don't,
because you do,
you Just
leave me alone.
i cross the skies
with all my whys
and ever each empty
seat beside me
is for you. Are you
fact or are you fiction,
I have become
your contradiction

You leave me alone
even if my love
does not know
how to leave you.
