From Here To Somewhere I Do Not Know

Where did you go?
You just departed
without my knowing.

You slipped away
secretly at the
middle of the night.

The door has shut
carefully and no
traces of you left

but all the memories
here, and there you are
somewhere I do not know.

I am saddened.
You vanished in the air.
We can no longer be together.

Problem is, I can’t
even think normally and
can’t act true to others.

Will you come back?
I can wait here.
Please, be back now.
