A Poem for a Wednesday - Why?
by Andrea Mulder-Slater
I'm afraid
Of loneliness - I answer.
Don't be ridiculous, you tell me.
You'll never be alone, I hear you say.
As you quietly leave me.
Always.
Careful.
To shut the door behind you.
I'm afraidAfraid of what? You often ask me.
Don't be ridiculous, you tell me.
You'll never be alone, I hear you say.
As you quietly leave me.
Always.
Careful.
To shut the door behind you.
