He was standing by the road
she was at the other side.
She walked across
carrying a bag, full of pink
too heavy for her to handle
but she dragged it all the way
Then, there she was,
at this side of the road,
standing in front of him
eye-to-eye,
no one spoke,
she "returned" everything
every gift he gave,
every note he wrote,
every thing they shared,
and began walking.
He was still standing by the road
holding a bag, dripping pink.
She was "crossing" the road,
but every step she took
she felt it, she felt that
every step was heavy
very heavy,
heavier than the bag.
