Unwritten Absence

I hadn't seen my love for so long,
I was beginning to wonder if I had done something wrong.

The weekend had flown,
I was feeling so much alone.

Mondays here time to go back to work,
I am feeling so emotional, I couldn't go so I decided to shirk.

I know my not going might cause my boss disturbance,
But they will have to accept I have taken unwritten absence.
