THE EX
Prompt - The Ex : Write a poem to someone who is estranged from you
I’ve never missed the silences that last
I’ve never missed the eggshells underfoot
I’ve never missed the intimacy barrier
I’ve never missed the dubious politics
The anti-thought outbursts
The hours of trashy romances
Forced to be trivial
I’ve never missed the mutual mismatch
Hatched from mutual desperation
The background of “I’m leaving”
The constantly looming divorce
And I wonder how we stayed for so long
How we let the pain go by without treatment
It was never all bad, nothing ever is
I hope happiness has found you
But
I’ve never missed you
