I snuck out
Into the deserted corridor
It must have been just moments, mere minutes after you left
The others were still sleeping
Behind silent doors
It was just me, the lonely corridor
And the very absence of you
I could feel the distance grow between us
Ticking away with the seconds and minutes going by
In a almost physical way
I sensed it in the offness of my skin, the alien feeling of the corridor, the alcohol permeating my pores from the day before
I was numb
Too numb to feel the grief of your parting
You broke your promise to wake us up
And say goodbye
