Pills

While looking for something in a cupboard

I found your pill organiser. Plastic. Once white

Now covered in the faintest layer of dust

It hasn't been touched in five years

That's how long it has been

It rattled when I picked it up. It wasn't empty

Pills you had planned to take

But never got around to taking

Pills that, in the end, didn't matter.

They didn't extend your time with us
