Why Did You Let Me?



We were lying
in bed, I touched your hair
softly.

And you let me.
Build up hope
with that intimate touch.
 
Right before you turned
to face me.
With stones in your eyes
that said “GET THE FUCK OUT."

So I left 
without one more touch
just to remember you by.

And you let me.
Maybe you didn’t mean
to let me slip
through the cracks and the creaks
of the apartment.

But you did.

So when I miss you
I remember those stones,
what they say
about your heart.
