A soft pressure at my forehead
A trace down my cheek
The hold around my waist lets go
I hear footsteps walk away
I cannot speak

To see is to believe
So my eyes stay closed
What I can't see
Cannot be
There is still hope

I felt your deliberate departure
But you couldn't have left me alone
I open my eyes
Naked reality stands stark and bare
You are gone
