Once we were that couple out on the drive
Washing the car, my hair up in space buns and midriff on show
And laughter so sweet it tasted of sugary lemonade bubbles.

Now we are standing awkwardly apart on the lawn
Hair bedraggled, loose and wild, eyes swollen and sore
While hostile words cut through skin made soft by an abundance of tears.

Cutting to the chase
Has led to a life
Misplaced
Misspent
What a waste!
