Crystal Wilkins Poet Blank verse

Gone Away

I didn't know what to expect
When you went away
at the time it was a bizarre concept
but I never told you to stay

I predict, tears and a sad face
Not the blank face of my phone
While my home became a place
as I never felt more alone

The time difference was strange
Made calling becoming more of a game
I guess we were just out of range
I don't know who is to blame

You got busy as I got sad
my angry heart was battered 
I couldn't help but get mad 
as my heartfelt shattered
