I wasn’t here
when you packed up
everything
important to you
Your badminton racket
Your blinged-out bike
Your stamp collection
Some favourite family photos
Not to mention
Your clothes
All those tennis shoes,
sneakers
whatever they are
The cable sweater I knitted for
your birthday last year
So you wouldn’t be cold
in Alaska
You didn’t say
“I’m leaving”
You didn’t leave
a note
You didn’t say where
But here you are
gone

Inspiration from
14. I wasn’t even there
Write a poem about something
you missed, something you
weren’t there for, something that
happened without you. /
