"Simply Dirt" or "This is Everything"

"Simply Dirt" or "This is Everything"

A Poem by nichols6
"

Couldn't decide on a title. Some of it feels forced to me, but I really like the last stanza.

"
When I saw you coming
I knew what was in store
I clenched my fists tighter
as you danced through the door

With your eyes on the ground
And my mind in jet lag
You gave me back love
In a white garbage bag

And with this returning
You muttered this wording:
"This is everything"
And you were gone

I hadn't cried til then
And to my former friend,
I want to express my hurt:
The bag and its' contents
And all our old nonsense
Are now, plain and simply, dirt.
