And just like that
you were gone, disappeared from my life.
You were the closest
I ever had to a soulmate, a partner, a wife.
My nights and days
you filled them with overwhelming satisfaction.
Now that you're gone,
I no longer have interests in social interaction.
Without you here
it is difficult to understand what life means.
But this is goodbye,
I'll miss you much, my fermented soybeans.
