THE MOMENT YOU TURNED

THE MOMENT YOU TURNED

My heart dropped

‎I expected a goodbye

‎or at least a wave, a huge anything

‎but nothing came

‎It felt like forever

‎I pushed the urge to run after you

‎Pushed away the look in eyes

‎Pushed away your smile

‎Pushed away the echoes of you twice

‎just to prove I didn't care

‎because I cared so much more

‎I held your hand

‎and wished I never let go

‎and wished you would turn

‎and wished you would look back

‎and wished you would see me there

‎still holding

‎still waiting

‎and I kept wishing

‎until my hands ache

‎and my chest bleeds

‎learned the shape of you

‎waiting for you to turn

‎wish you would turn and wave

‎but you didn't

‎and that's when I know

‎I had already lost you

‎Long before you walked away.
