just the truth

I had a dream of her today…

what’s left of delta blew thru and the tropical air mixed with autumn leaves got my mind to wandering…

the details are just for me…

it is enough to say that I was a wreck thru most of the day…

I made her favorite foods and listened to the music she loved…

then I threw it all in the trashcan…

it has been said that it is better to have loved and lost than to never have loved at all…

I ask, have you ever tried it?

I am alone in the world…

to dine on ashes and wash it down with sour grapes…

and it is what it is…
