The Slip

You let me slip

So gently,

So easily from

Your fingertips,

That I didn’t know

That I was falling,

Until I felt the air

Rushing up

On every side of me.

And I don’t know

Just why you dropped

The call,

Or why you let me go,

But, I guess this is the nicest

Way I’ve ever been dumped before.

I guess?
