Paperclip

Open up the newspaper of today

Bright lit background of digitize gossip

What we did today-

What they are doing tomorrow-

Memories of formers

Going places without you

Smiling at cameras held up high

Reminders of photos with hands outstretched in no,

Don’t,

I

Don’t 

Want

To be remembered

With

You,

Anyone,

But

You.

The things they do you wanted to do

The reminders each day 

Of why you aren’t there

Remember,

Remember,

Remember the hurt

And how good it feels

To not be there 

With those frown-y faces

Mugged to selfies

With you-

The anyone-but-

You.
