WRITING OBSTACLE
In a short scene, how can your protagonist say “I won’t forget you” without literally saying the words “I won’t forget you”?
You
Your empty cereal bowl lay on the wooden table
I can’t wash it or put it in the sink with thoughts unable
I wish that you didn’t have to take that forbidding trip
My tears are slowly falling on my face and on my lip
The Jean shirt that you wore yesterday sits on the bed
Somehow even though you are gone you are in my head
I am just going back to the empty dreamless messy house
Watching cartoons alone about a crazy cat chasing a mouse
Your worn out topsider shoes are not going for another walk
You are all around this house and I want you home to just talk
