Maybe I’ll never understand

how your feelings seemed to change

overnight

You said you had a lot of room

for me in your heart and your life

When I was shivering for your warmth

you told me you were never in doubt

How did it change from

being two willing fools in love

because we want to

to—no, I don’t want you

anymore.

About the Creator

S.R. Var

I wrote to understand the world around me. I stopped to become a scientist. Decades later, I write to understand myself. Perhaps if you see a bit of yourself in my writing, it may bring you some solace too.
