Some musings

she never came to see you,
never looked you in the eye,
she never came to tell you
how she hoped that she would die

she never asked for tablets,
never sought from you a note,
she never gave herself a chance,
she chose to stay remote

you’re not her doctor anymore
but don’t think you’re to blame,
you never even spoke to her
you never knew her name.
