Minions

by Megan Aries - Not entered

I've always hated your little minion friends.
And to be honest, I'm glad that I don't have to 
look at their smug faces, hiding their horns
away, laughing at me when I walk past them on the
street, because you left me with nothing, not even
my smile. I stole it back from you, my former love.
You can look in your boxes, and drawers, you won't 
find it anywhere. I know you were saving it for
a rainy day. Bitterness becomes you, it has left
me and will return to you. Enjoy it, drink it
like wine, for it will smell of me, as it has been
with me so long. It might even look like me. Will
you remember my face? Have you forgotten? Did you 
have some sort of extensive brain surgery that erased
every memory that you ever had of me? Do you like
being stranded on the side of the road where I
once stood? Sticking your thumb out with no one
to pick you up.
