Left Behind
December 17, 2011
I stood there and watched
As you hugged everyone goodbye
I stood there
At the corner
You smiled and laughed at last minute jokes
But for some reason
I watched my best friend leave me
For another country
For another school
And I don’t remember what I said
Or what I wore
Or what I did
All I remember is watching you smile
And turning away
And not looking back
