Everything came out from underneath her,
Her knees buckled, and everything shattered.
Her views of the past turned sad and bitter.
He ran after her; it didn’t matter.
They turned their backs on her, though he didn’t.
She couldn’t stay after going through that.
She was still a child, still so innocent,
This was her whole life, where she’d grown up at.
Now, she chose to leave; wash it all away.
He wanted her to stay, but she couldn’t.
The clouds came as the sun set; a light grey.
He felt pain as she left, though he shouldn’t.
The sun ended the day for the city,
She ended the day with audacity.
