Burnt Out Lightbulb

[ p o e t r y 2]62 words~1 min read

Grief is such

An eerily strange thing.

Tonight I hesitated to throw out

A broken light bulb.

It's been burnt out for nearly a week.

Yet, as I held it over the trashcan

I didn't want to let go.

The thought hit me,

"What if he bought this?

What if this is the last thing

He bought that I'll ever touch?"
