Elegy in a Country Bus

How long I have been soldiering on?
Seems like ages you’ve been gone.
Tears, regrets, remorse have I
There’s just no sparkle in my eye
No sunshine glint here any more
Only dullness at the core
Nothing helps, I have to say
I know. I've tried. But life's still grey.
No matter how I try to shine
Nothing works if you’re not mine
I miss you so, I need you too
Just how much, I never knew
Water spots and soapy rings
Brillo marks on everything...
O shining platters, sparkling glass
O dishwasher, I miss your ass.
