Cleaning Up After You

entry picture

I sometimes feel your absence as if it were dust,

easily disturbed by currents of sorrow,

only to settle on the remnants you left behind.

 

With some effort, I sweep the delicate memories

into a bin that is never full, so you won't worry that I'm okay.

Such a short and impactful piece of writing. Unfortunately easily missed I would imagine.

The sign of a healthy mind is its ability to convey its thinking in a concise manner.

I've used too many words in response already.

Lovely writing.
