The Void

Topic: SadPoetry

She left a goodbye letter just the other day
He was surprised but read it anyway
She told him sorry and explained why
He glanced away, but read on anyway

There was no stopping--he had to know
He knew he would cry either or
She told him it would have come eventually
She gave him hints, but he knew he was a fool

Something was missing in her life-he read
Work keeps him late and dinner gets cold
No money in the world could keep her warm
Didn’t even notice the ‘I love you’ note on his car door

He had to stand up and get a drink
Something real strong for he’ll loose it quick
One more shot before reading the rest
One more shot to have near just in case

She tells him how she feels this is for the best
She says how much she got depressed
He jilts the chair as to fall to the ground
“Oh why did she have to leave—tell me why?”

He sees it’s near the end and wishes for hope
The last phrase hits him with remorse
He notices a mark--a tear perhaps
His eyes are swollen now

She mentions there’s no life in their home
No more running to the bedroom door
She wishes she could have given more
He wishes he could have listened more

He stops to look at their picture once again
How beautiful she looked on their wedding day
He remembers what she said on that special day
“You filled my void with your soul, love, and touch.”

There was more he knows, but he never forgot
His love was there and knew he messed up
She says goodbye as he reads the very last line
He makes his amends as he sets it aside

This is the last of the verse
No more heartache as he picks up his coat
He turns once more to remember their time
As he closes the door a small sigh is heard

“I’m sorry-I’m sorry one day I may be forgiven.”
