Left

Perhaps I will forever be the
        stupid young girl I thought
        I left behind in the
        whirlwind of growing up
Finding now that I am gone from your
        heart, dreams, and memories
        not by time fading me
        but by your own damned choice
I long for days when I seemed to be
        the eternal apple
        of your tender brown eyes
Yet understanding that my time's end
        has come and gone
        many days, months ago
No one can piece me together now
