Left the village after leaving you.
Didn’t miss the urge to have you.
eyes stopped heart stopped
But your wait did not stop.
live in your mind
I did not miss going in your street.
you are gone but you
Our hands did not leave the shadow.
After you’re gone, it’s mine
Staying away from alcohol did not stop.
