Description
you told me to stop feeling sad
as if it were something
tangible in my grasp
that i could simply drop
on the floor next to your old
dress shoes
to sweep under the carpet
and forget about.

but in the end we're going to
have to lift the carpet
and all of that dust
is going to filter into my lungs
anyway.

you're a fool if you think otherwise.
