i dont know how you do it
with such elegant charm
how you fade away ever so swiftly
and come back again as if you were never gone

it’s like a magic trick
a disappearing act
one blink, and you’re here
another blink, then there’s none

you leave me awestruck,
confused, conflicted
you leave me wondering
wandering,

you

leave

me

teach me how to do that
just like the way you do
close the lights,
curtains down

watch me walk away too.
