Bleed

I just stood there,
totally motionless and all you did was watch.
I just cried there,
totally lifeless and all you did was watch.
I just mourned there,
all choked up and all you did was watch.
I just bled there,
all drained of happiness and all you did was watch.
But then,
you finally realized, on that gloomy Saturday night when you had no one, that you needed me.
Once again,
I just bled there,
but no, you did not watch,
we stood there drained of happiness, together.
