It lies in broken pieces around us
Glass littering the floor
Like dying stars
Shattered
Like so many other things
I thought I could trust you with
You told me you were never good
At keeping things whole
And I thought you could change
Maybe it was my foolishness
To think you could handle
Changing the lightbulb

How many ex-lovers does it take to change a lightbulb?!
Nice poem Mahika and a good interpretation of the prompt.
Thanks for posting. Colin.

I loved this! Was not expecting that twist towards the end. I would love to get some tips on writing this way.
