I Still Check the Bed for You


When I come home from work, before I even put my bag down or take my coat off, I walk over to the bedroom and check to see if you're there.
                   Why do you think you do that?
                          Grief and relief.
                               Oh?
                        I'm still grieving that you're not there.
                      And I'm so relieved that you're not there.
                          Did you take your shoes off at the door?
