S

I was alone

‎When it all happened,
‎When she took to the bed,
‎Deep long nights in her ward,
‎I was alone.

‎When she laid there breathless,
‎Oxygen tank restless,
‎Her soul carving out of her,
‎I was alone.

‎When she took her last breathe,
‎The cold night of December 26th,
‎Her lifeless body lay-eth,
‎I was alone.

‎When they buried her body,
‎Her soul had left already,
‎Memories of her on replay,
‎I was alone.

‎So, who are you?
‎To call yourself my friend,
‎When I need you the most,
‎I saw you the least
