She Expected More of Him

Her smile just doesn't reach her eyes,
And yet she presses on.
Determined still to overcome
The shock that he's now gone.

It only hurts just when she breathes
She wished she knew for sure
Why her closest friend in all the world
Would turn his back on her?

She never saw it coming,
Devoted until the end.
She's left to struggle silently
For she expected more...of him.
