Never Forget

Never Forget

An original poem by Gfish

Based on a true story

I went to the bathroom

To take a dump,

My phone in my pocket,

A sturdy lump.

But it was not secure,

And it fell with a plop.

My heart skipped a beat,

My stomach did a drop.

I thought it’d be okay,

That I could get it out,

When the automatic flush

Sent it whirling about.

Down the pipe

It did disappear.

The empty bowl

Confirming my fear.

Gone

Right before my eyes

Now down in the sewer,

It cries.

Never Forget.
