Blue Toothbrush
Anjilika thought she'd never see Liam again after he left for Hollywood. The only reminder she had of their relationship was a toothbrush he'd left at her apartment. A toothbrush she can't let go of.
Do you have my blue toothbrush?
I left it near the bathroom sink.
It's been a couple months, I think.
You tossed it, if I had to guess.
I hope it never caused you stress.
I know how you don't like a mess.
You rarely have the time each day
To deal with tooth or heart decay
Of someone who's a million miles away.
But still I thought that I could stay.
