"it's been so long. why are you so distant?"

there is an empty space in the cupboard. on the left side. there are no more bottles of orange juice in the fridge. there is only one towel in the bathroom. and the right side of the bed is too hard. the door has started creaking again. and there is no lightbulb in the attic. the business pages of the newspaper are never opened.

my ring finger has a white line across it. its where my ring used to be.

there are signs of you everywhere. why didn't you take them with you when you left?
