A Love Remembered



He left today
My pillows catch my tears
The pillow talks to me every night -
They bring back the memories
I stare blankly at the pictures
They hang slanted on the wall -
They animate the moments that we used to sit and talk.
I hear a knock at the door.
They hand me the flag
The relationship with my pillow just strengthened
