The cupboards are stocked with food for two
the furniture has that twosome look,
the utensils,
appliances,
overloaded drawers,
wedding announcements,
stacked towels,duplicate in color,
everything set for the family of two.
Only the drawers filled with my things alone,
and the closet full of all my clothes
show that half of the two fled the coop,
one not residing here anymore.
