Reflection

by Heather Williams - Libra

I was flattered to hear
All the sweet things you spoke about me
If you had so many sweet things to say
Why did you leave?
Apparently, you could see no saddness in my eyes
I feel punished now
As if I am supposed to wait for you
Wait for you to realize or walk away 
Or something that I just can't see
I lie on my bed alone
Watching the smoke from my incense lift up
And inhale deeply wondering where you went...
