Thoughts While Raining Poem by Byron Headrick

Our relationship suffers from work force reduction –
Neither one of us tries anymore,
And you say I have changed, since I became an executive
And I say you have changed, since you started watching soap operas…
The young and restless
The bold and beautiful
And when I look at you
I see no thing of beauty
Just pain
Like Halloween candy with a razor blade surprise.
I wonder when I will leave
Because loving you has been and fled
Leaving me behind.
