Who Won?
“I have no intention of being happy”
He said.
The words made her feel as though
She were reviewing
The rest of her life.
Day after day of trying to
Make someone else happy.
Who the hell does that?
41 years later
He has died. (Who knows when)
She’s still trying to live
Doing and doing for
Others without their knowledge.
