Monologue: Faded Flowers (please let me know what you think)?

Question:

Poem/Monologue: Faded Flowers (please let me know what you think)?

This was written about an ex-friend who "loved" someone too much. It has some light mature content. If you are uncomfortable with that please stop reading. I think this is more of an audition monologue with a few poetic elements--so, think of it in that way instead of just as a poem. Let me know if you like it.

Faded Flowers

I really knew it was over when I found my bags packed,
and placed neatly on the doorstep. You were always
so considerate. I admired your attention to detail.
The way you would clean the sheets
after your afternoon romps with whomever.
If I were more like you I would have called first,
or at least knocked. Well, I just wanted you to know,
I appreciated you packing my bags between orgasms.

It??s pathetic but I still held out hope
that we??d get back together.
Yes, you said, ??I hate you!?? But,
it was how you said it. Confusion.
That??s what I heard in your voice.
You??d come around.

So, I waited
and watched
in a friend??s car across the street.
You were never alone, but you seemed
so lonely. Fragile. I wanted to hold you.

I know, I know, I got a little crazy
all right obsessive. What could I do?
You did this to me.
I began to see how you really were.
You didn??t deserve my love.

You may have noticed--you never noticed!
But I went to your funeral. I brought you flowers.
Stargazer lilies, the ones you like.
The minister was babbling on
Shadow of death
Not fearing evil.

I had nothing left to fear, you were dead.

He said, you were in a better place.
I find that hard to believe after
all the pain you caused me.

What was more troubling
was the thought that you might
come back in another life. I??d have
to go through this all over again.

So, I bowed my head in prayer to whatever God
would make you.

And quietly, very quietly, salted the earth.
