I didn't exist in her world. You are right about the key throwing. Thanks for comment.

Re: next door neighbor
She probably would have thrown her reply at me just like she did the door key. J

Maybe, as you were watching her you should have said hello to her too. Loved the movement of this poem...a good read for sure.

Joab, I'm a little late with this but in this isolated world we live in...
her abrupt departure desn't really surprise me, nor her lack of communication with you..we have neighbours around us we speak to daily, but others who have been here almost as long as us,close to thirty years, no desire to even nod a "Hello"....
that key throwing she performed when all was done sure says a mouthful though..

Re: it's as though we never existed
One thing is certain, we never existed in her eyes or her world. j

Re: She has turned her back on everything. the thrown key says it all.

Re: My next door neighbor
She lived there for over a year and never once spoke to us. That is what is sad.j

Some memories we are best not to be reminded of.
