Kept to your word,
absurd how I didn't believe
at the time, and still
you professed you were fine
when I rung, replacing
the receiver; I was sublime.
They found you hung
like a bathrobe upon the door.
Blackened, a memory so raw
your worn out blue shoes
dangling below the noose.
I’m still drunk from your illness.
You, with a sign
round your neck
do not disturb.
