I’ve never been one to linger
when things are over…

There was this one time.
I figured after the first 2 years
I owed him at least the time it takes
to grind a shriveled up, dried out heart
to a nice fine powder.

He did a thorough job of it, too.

Of course,
mine was always more capable
of a come back
than his.
