I Can't Begin.

I can't begin

to know how you felt

the day he left you

without word or hint,

just left you to wonder

where he'd gone and why.

No word from him,

no phone call or letter,

no message to inform

of why it had to be that way

no warning that morning.

All day wondering,

mind upset and worried sick,

but days came and went

and not a word.

Then on the fourth day

he rang and said he was in London

working in a bar

and rented a room

and said it was over

and he wouldn't return.

I can't begin to understand

why he left as he did

and how without word or warning

that warm summer morning.
