When Did You Walk Away? (Free verse) by TLRufener
The world has become confusing
Everything I knew has changed
The sun has hidden behind the clouds
And each day it only rains
A river of tears flows from my eyes
The ocean waves are cold and gray
My heart has shattered into a million pieces
Wondering âwhen did you walk away?â
I cannot help but ask who is by your side
I see you together each and every day
She suits you well, better than me
At least that is what you say
She can keep you as long as she can
I have to wonder how soon you will stray
After that the roles will be switched
She will ask âwhen did you walk away?â
Your life will carry on until you die
Always changing opponents in you fray
Each and every heart you break
Will band together in strength and pray
The tables will turn on you soon
A girl will be the one to stray
You will cry alone with your broken heart
Asking, âwhen did you walk away?â
