Sapphire

I’m not quite sure of what I am,
though this education should probably know.
Presumably attached to the finger of a wealthy power suit,
studied business management at Kent university,
smashed constantly against a fountain pen,
writing checks, signing your redundancy package.

She’ll leave me on the train one day,
the 10:42 to Manchester that she was late for.
I loosened and I slipped away so easily
for that life of carriage adventures.
