Decades Poem by Reyvrex Questor Reyes

By this time
She will be awake
As her clock would always chime
Missing breakfast that I make
She'll be crying

By this time
She unlocks the door
Sees my goodbye note in rhyme
And she throws it on the floor
She'll be crying

By this time
She walks by the well
Where we used to throw some dime
Wishing what we would not tell
She'll be crying

By this time
She waters the rose
Careful not to splash the grime
She'll recall the blooms I chose
She'll be crying

By this time
Laughter she will miss
Once, she play-acted as mime
Whereby I gave her a kiss
She'll be crying

By this time
I have gone ten years
She is now way past her prime
With a baby that she bears
And I'm crying.
