why did you leave me?

Maybe it was the vast crudeness in my voice,
The trinkets I collected and kept,
And used to sweep my rooms into chaos.

Perhaps, perhaps it was the excessive care and culturing,
I took of my books and habits.
Or the way I held you too tightly in the early morning rays.

I don't know what drove you from me,
How horribly you must think of me,
As I already think of myself.

Maybe I should have tried harder,
Perhaps I could have been like HER,
Or been HER but better, more.
