gumball

today i bought a gumball, green, and thought of you
biting it in half to make it two
laughing as we walked

today i bought a gumball, green, and thought of you
leaving it whole
crying as i walked

today i bought a gumball, green, and thought of you
always
silence as i walked

today i bought a gumball, green, and thought of you
and felt nothing

goodbye

glorious days
over
only photos and memories
did you know
before
you took
everything
