He sat on the edge of his bed in disbelief.
The girl, he had spent the last four years with,
Wanted to see other people.
He didn�t understand;
They had built an empire
For them to reign forever in,
But she no longer wanted it.
Because being treated with appreciation
Was too much for her
�but he was raised to be loving
And respectful�so neglecting a her needs and expressing
Sophistic feelings of affection and consideration
Wasn�t a behavior he picked up on.
And the question,
�Why she wanted to be free,�
Played in his head
Like the scene from his favorite movie.
She wanted to leave and left;
Taking all the contents of his heart
Along with her like it was take-out from Bennigans.
He sat on the edge of the bed;
The last place, she and he had been before
She walked away from him. He sat wandering
If his feelings for her left as she had�but they hadn�t.
Because if his feelings had,
He wouldn�t have sat on the edge of the bed
And thought about the forever they�ll never have,
Because she had left,
Yesterday.
