The Breakup

You detached me from your regard.

You devalued me with your unkindness.

Your unapologetic apathy underscored my uselessness.

But, when you told me to get out, you were redundant.

I was already gone.

Ha ha! Good for you! (if this is actually factual.) If not, it's still a great piece. Great language, Robin. Best wishes, Keith
