easy to leave

You always said you feared 
being left behind, 
but in the end, 
it was you who walked away. 

You feared the pain of loss, 
yet you chose to let go first, 
as if it was easier that way— 
to leave than to be left

I stood here, 
waiting for you to stay, 
but you turned away, 
and now I’m left with the hurt, 
wondering if leaving 
was really easier for you.
