timeA Poem by Molly Garnetand finally one morning she woke up and didn’t miss him anymore and she put cream and sugar in her coffee instead of tears she went to a bookstore by herself and read the last chapter of seventy-six novels she threw away the cigarettes and poured the red wine down the sink she walked to a local café ate lunch alone and paid the tab for a stranger while window shopping she found herself staring at every pink sundress so she bought three and replaced the dark rags in her closet that night she watched the sunset from her roof and it became a prayer she drank vanilla tea before going to sleep and never again did she miss him.
