HOWRU

'How are you?' she asks

but she doesn't mean it.

She couldn't

not after all that's happened.

She means

'Hope you're OK'

or

'Glad you're not dead'

or

'Oh! Time for me to go!'

but nothing more

than that.

She is done with me

that is obvious

and could care much more

for how I fare.

It doesn't matter

not anymore

not to her

and not to me.
