in our summer years

 
you left me in the dark without even a goodbye
my heart cried
and before the tears could dry on my face
you were on to the next lover
 
I no longer amused you
our love turned cold
while I still shared a bed with you
so you reached for another
 
I felt you leave inside me
your true presence no longer there
in our marriage disavowed  
you took no blame for the pain you caused
 
I looked in your eyes
and saw another woman there
dancing in your soul and lighting up your face
I smiled with you
while you smiled for someone else
my trust broken when you walked out
 
later I saw you together
with the woman, who captured your attention
she looked like me at a younger age
and I knew you were trying to find us once more
 
in our youth so much in love
you were going back home
to our happy place
