Forever?


Your coat in my closet
a long strand of hair
faint traces of your cologne
memories of yesteryear's.

Feeling the fine fabric, i fold. 
Reach for an empty box
Cast a lingering look,
and tape the box shut.

Forcing the creaky draw open,
i see remnants of all that was broken
laying it to rest gingerly,
i ignore its constant plea.

Making room for a new chapters,
i lend a deaf year to their murmurs
One box over another..
and many more, shall follow after.

Life is transient, Like that!
