when his wife left him

without her love
without her support
his days grew longer
his nights became darker
his tears fell like monsoons
his heart kept falling apart
his life and mind became dispirited
heavy drinking and drugs became
his antidote for it all
served as his temporary relief
until he crashed and burned in his car
in a fiery collision with a tanker truck
whether it was by accident or on purpose
no one knows
