I Watched You

When I saw you 
I did not go to you.
Just watched 
for you took her hand in yours. 
Walking to your table 
you pulled her chair out .
As you waited to be served
you held her hand
touched her cheek .

I left,
you did not see me.
I went to our house
packed my belongings ...

I will not be back.
I am finished.
You can keep the dog 
and all of it...
I do not want anything from you.
Not even an explanation. 
There isn't one...
