​

I didn’t understand

When you left me only violets and irises
I didn’t understand

When you left me only an indention on your side of the matress
I didn’t understand

When you left me only an empty drawer
I didn’t understand

When you left me only shards of broken brown bottles
I didn’t understand

 

When you left me

I didn't understand

When you told me you didn’t love me
I understood
