Better Get Going

by Tom Evans

He'd say that every morning as he left behind nothing more than a light peck on my cheek. Each evening as he logged off at 18:23pm precisely, he'd say to himself, Better get going I suppose. He was always the last to leave. I was constantly telling him to slow down but would he listen? The irony brought a smile to my face, quelling my tears, as his coffin was lowered into the ground. On his headstone, I'd had engraved, "He decided he'd better get going."
