Happily Ever After

He held the garbage bag between forefingertip and thumb, as if a more intimate contact would run the stench right into his bones. Approaching the dump, he pushed his sleeve up above his elbows, and taking in an almighty gasp, held his breath as he wildly flung the refuse into the fetid pile of rot.

Dusting his hands, he heaved a sigh of relief, and muttered "Good riddance" to no one in particular.

The Great Uncertain

I loved what you were wearing. You looked stunning.

I know I lost my temper. I know I shouldn't have. My shame brought me to your feet, and it is here I will stay.

I know you know I'm sorry. And that I love you. And I always will.

Fool me once, Shame on you.
Fool me twice, Shame on me.

I don't need to read about your fucking heartbreaks, nor do you need to know mine. At least, not for now. So I guess this is it, for a while. Hope you enjoyed your stay.

Goodbye, and have a nice life.
