self dying

When I cried out to you
in pain,

you did not understand,
that needed.

I needed your soothe
and reassurance,
and understanding,
and time to heal,
with your help,

but you saw it as a reason,
to turn and run away,
and leave this friend in need,
now needing so much more,

and I have to ask myself,
what kind of friend or person,
would leave a love

all alone,
with heart bleed,
tears falling,
love crying,
self dying?
