If I left here tomorrow

Would you even notice?

Or would you just notice all the unpaid bills

All of the uncooked meals

Would you miss me?

Or would you just miss the thrill of calling or texting me

At three in the morning when you’re lonely

Or need help

Would you miss the person?

Or just things that I do for you

When I’m not taking care of me

    Now, that's some questions that NEED answering. No substitutions, retractions, or deletions. Scalpel-sharp poetry. A definite win.

  • I often ask these same questions, Atomic. I feel this one too deeply to comment further.
