I cannot bear to rinse away your toothpaste residue;
everywhere I turn, I find reminders of you.
The fingerprints remain on your dirty glass;
the circular rings hypnotize and harass.
The blue fuzz from your socks lingers on the floor;
so many reminders of you that I can't ignore.
Sentimentality forces me to leave everything in its place;
these reminders of you cannot be erased.
The toothpaste goo sticks to the sink like glue;
it glues together memories of you.

| I like thealmost irony in this as all the nice reminders are general annoyances when the other party is still there. Very good. |

When I look at the date this was posted now I can see why I missed it. Was going through my own personal hell back then.
I really found this poem to be an excellent write for one. I certainly can relate to those "glues" that hold the memories together.
Even though it seems to be a sad write, this line brought a smile for some reason:
