She stuck around
not because she had to
but because she loved you
and she believed somehow
one day
you would wake up and
and be the man that she had fallen in love with so long ago
so for months she would wake up hopeful
that things would be different
that today would be the day you brought back
everything she was missing
but you ignored her cries
and now that she's gone
those tears from her sorrows
have become your own
and you can't help but to wonder
how things would be different
if you had just taken the time
to listen
