Why did I say that to her?
Better question: What should I have said?
I turned around in a hurry;
I had errands to be run.
So I told her I'll be back.
I'll be back tomorrow. Cya then.
I guess that was instinct,
but it surely wasn't smart.
For after I left this interaction,
which I took for granted,
the virus hit.
And one day became one week became several months
silent, and scared.
You never lose what you love at the best time.
You lose it when you lay on your instincts,
and you stop paying attention.
