HAUNTED

Your shoes haunt me
I should throw them away
Their emptiness calls to your
absence
Says...  Stay...

Which it does
It never leaves
For what might ever leave
Without ​​​​shoes​

Being Me

Oh my...as sad as it is this poem is sooooo cleverly written. No one can leave without their shoes! Well, they can I suppose ... but they don't. So I totally get why the shoes must stay. And yet seeing the shoes there... those shoes... his shoes ...  oh I feel the dilemma my friend. An amazingly well written poem on loss. So clever. So brilliant. But I guess it wouldn't be anything less than awesome coming from you. Hugs ⚘⚘x
