I knew you were leaving...before you left. You were br letting me go...a minute...an hour...a day at a time. br You told me, not in words, but in the withdrawal, br of all which bonded two, as one. Our time together, br no longer, a time of love and caring, but moments br of uncomfortable silence and trite conversation. br I know you were leaving before you left...I just br didn't know how to make you stay.
