Left Me, Left us, Left Him

No one is really going to understand,
And I don’t expect them to.
No one is really going to care,
And why should they?

But, I know why you left me.
Left us.
Left Him.

Didn’t you know that I would love you through this?
That I would be your friend no matter what you did?
No matter the choices you made?

But maybe you were smart. (You always have been.)
Maybe you knew that I loved you too much.
Maybe you were afraid that I would follow you.
And perhaps, in your heart of hearts, you still know the truth.
Maybe you were trying to protect me. (Just like you always did).

I don’t know. I guess I never will.
But I still love you.
I’m still here.
We’re still here.
He’s still here.
