giving kudos

This blog is dedicated to the writing from others whom I don't know but have found inspirational on the Internet...in no particular order.  (Note: This list will most likely be updated frequently.)

I thought I’d scrubbed
every piece of you,
all returned to its place
of origin—
and so, I dusted my hands,
glad to be rid of the residue,
swept the floors,
polished the glass,
lived in a new way
between darkness and sunlight,
keeping the pain at bay,
until I found the set of pink cups
you bought—those cheap plastic ones
that we drank from a thousand times,
the ones that held not just drinks
but memories of your hands curved
around the edges as we read,
watched shows, existed in peace;
I had forgotten about them,
forgotten about their place
on the top shelf,
until I opened the cabinet door
and wished like hell
I could un-find them.
