Poem: Life Goes on Without Me

Life goes on without me
by Me

The right rain falls
And something is dull in her voice
Like a mechanic
Or a police officer
Or even an X-lover
Which I guess is what I am
She is not happy to be talking with me
Anymore
I’m just another piece of business
To get out of the way
My heart clenches in my chest
And drops a few inches
As I know this;
Life goes on without me.
