Cast Off

I've been waiting for you to rescue me,
My tears keep coming,
No one there to catch them.
I thought you were here,
But you must have left an hour ago.
A day ago?
A week ago?
My knees are weak,
My sweating hands pulling
Hard on my ballgown,
I step hastily away
As my heartbreak claims
Another year away.
