The Other Woman
I am the underwear you rarely wash
but stuff behind the door.
The rest you clean
from day to day,
but I remain, still squashed
between the empty plates and clothes, unseen
for days until you finally decide
to pick all the rubbish from the floor.

| Very nice write here. So much said in only 46 words, and I too, loved the metaphor. Keep writing Sherrilyn! |
