The Unexpected

You promised
That you'd come back
But I didn't want to be
The one waiting here for you
Sitting in this empty house
Hoping for something to happen
When I know nothing will
So I drove over to see you
But everything I wanted to say
Disappeared the way you did
And now I'm all out of words
Though the pain's a million time worse
And when I finally manage
To think of something
I don't say it
Because it doesn't feel right
Just seeing you here
Seems so wrong to me
So I pick up your ashes
And I take you home
