My Sticky Notes

I need them back

image by author

I stuck them on my desk
I stuck them on my chair
I stuck them in my hair
I stuck them everywhere!

I loved their design
they felt super sleek!
their use so unique
to them, I am weak.

When my wife left me
it was those notes, she took
that little crook
those I won't overlook!

Like I did with the kids
I’m a bad father
their love I won’t bother
just like my stepfather.

I still want them though
after all these years
not the kids, my dear
it’s those notes I endear.

I did buy some more
but they’re not the same
“THESE SUCK!” I exclaim
all other pads are lame.

Sure they’re sticky
but I expected more
in conclusion, therefore
they’ll stay in the drawer.
