Writing Prompt Wednesday #102

Write about being abandoned. -Anonymous

​TW: Abandonment

Eyes open
It’s the middle of the night
You’re asleep
You’re always asleep
There
But never there
Not really anyhow
I’m still searching for a trace of you
You look the same
Why do you still look the same
When everything that I’ve known about you
Everything that was inside
Left
Left me
Could you not handle
The pain it took you
To acknowledge that I exist
That you’re supposed to care about me?
Was it easier to run away?
Do you still wake up in the middle of the night
Just as I do
Thinking about me
Missing me
And wishing you hadn’t went away?
