Come back

 you cannot come back after teaching

detachment

at first,

they were attached

to every little thing --

your voice,

your replies,

the way you used to make them feel chosen.

but you taught detachment slowly.

with every delay.

every mixed signal.

every moment they loved you

and felt invisible.

and honestly,

you cannot come back

after teaching someone detachment.

because the lesson worked

better than your love did.
