She left
Without looking back
No second glances
Without remembering those who would miss her
Without sympathy for those she would hurt
She forgave those who hurt her
But those she loved never understood
Her selflessness until it was too late
She fought but gave up too soon
Leaving regret in those who loved her
Guilt lurking in the air around them
She gave them life
Loved them
Taught them
Cared for them
And was always there for them
But she did not tell them
How to live without her
