Image for the poem one last time

one last time

i had to see you
one last time
to see how it
would feel

got my power back
felt surprisingly calm
maybe let my
indifference show
told you a half-truth
when you asked
where i'd been

acted surprised
when you told me
you worried about me
you seemed to sulk
and added you wondered
what happened to me

then without warning
you turned your back
to me while i was
still talking to you
to say the conversation
was over or
maybe just to
hide your tears
