first gone some...late church nights...lady friends...then home...stay a while...suffer holiday...
turn in early...disappear...gone...reappear with smile...long empty words...dull reasons...
excuses...retire to room...gone...short ring...not a finger...confusion...another holiday...
broken gifts...promises...dread...not tricked to track...gone again...in another...
days gone...no conversation...linked to deceit...still gone...then back...
slipped in...like not gone...surprise...unemployment...then a month...
down south...ailing sister...getting to be gone...returned for...
last holiday...not there...not with...but gone...gone away...
gone to the bedroom...gone to the laundry room...
gone down the driveway...gone...and gone...
gone as if never...revealed to be gone...
gone to another...another gone...
and gone to me...to all...
gone...and still...but...
still gone...and...
always…
gone
