Ha. Would ya look at that.
There is actually order among
all this damned disorder.
See the pie shells
sitting neatly
in their wrapper amongst
all the clutter.
Everything brings me back to you.
We hand an understanding,
you and I,
to always be there for one another
when no one else was.
It wasn't that long ago that
I told you goodbye
for the last time.
Something I didn't want to do,
but had to do.
The whole order and disorder thing.
The cool whip that you left
sitting on the kitchen counter
is beginning to thaw,
so I put it away in the freezer.
Small little memories
that you left behind,
that I don't want to rid myself of,
BUT MUST.
And I glance around the kitchen
Where you and I shared many
deep conversations,
and begin the task
of cleaning up this mess.
