Life Without You
Write a poem or short story about what life would be like without the person you care about the most.
it’s raining again tomorrow
coffee tastes better now
sometimes I wonder if I just prefer bitter things
sometimes I wonder if choking sweet sugary syrup down down down
is what they meant by love
by sweet nothings
the rain is coming
with no one around to comment on it
for my sake
I wonder if you just preferred bitter things
the house stands still and stale
and all the people too
the hush hush hush
of a slow crawl up the staircase
a bigger bed
an empty space
I think misery and company
are really the same thing
these days seem bitter now
and I wonder if we just preferred better things
