Here is a poem I wrote a couple years back:
Love does not live here anymore.
She packed her bags and broke her lease
Without giving 30 days notice
She was through being unconditional
Unrequited and unappreciated
Her mouth tasted so many tears
It did not know if they were tears of joy
Or tears of sorrow
She tired to change her wardrobe by
Taking her heart off her sleeve
but found,
No matter where she put it,
It always seemed to break
She tried yoga and other forms of meditation
She would listen to love songs
And then avoid love songs
All in the same week
She diagnosed herself with depression and prescribed chocolates
To monitor her condition
Then one day she picked up a pen and paper
And wrote,
“LOVE DOES NOT LIVE HERE ANYMORE”
She packed the pieces of her heart and left.
Love does not live here any more.
But if you see her,
Can you tell her she still owes me last months rent?
