Lunch Hours

You bought a goldfish on your lunch hour;


You told me that there was wonder in his lonely eyes;


You didn’t intend to kill him;


You called me when you got home;


You made your last phone call;


Your unnamed goldfish;


Your voice wasn’t the same anymore;


At the time I was upset that your voice is changed;


But now I am glad because now I know that you somehow knew how I felt when you left.
