He Left

He Left

 He stood to go; a bit of pain sat bitter on her tongue. 

He left and closed the door behind him. The goodbye that popped a lung.

“Don’t go,” she thought, as salted tears slid on brown cheeks. 

She spoke no word, begged alone as every limb fell weak. 

The sun had set on the day; their time had not been a waste. 

They did not grow obese in love, but they enjoyed the taste.
