Just Another Story...

The morning and evening commutes on the train to Chicago and back

Join me as he took my hand

Into fantasy land

Souls touching

Hearts beating

Pretending to be who he's not

Just another story...

Swimming into the unknown

Join me as he took my hand

Again, another fantasy land

Taking him away from the life he led

Again, pretending to be who he's not

Just another story...

"Holly's Splendor"

A wine he bought to wet my soul

Dinner and then

the dessert

Not fantasy land at all

Two souls connecting

Intertwining

Reaching, touching the divine

Just another story...

That needs to be told....in time...

The numerous vacations
to Steamboat Springs
again, take my hand
as we fly together
soaring down the mountain
holding me dearly
in his arms
Again, just another story...

The music stopped

Lights went out

Another lonely man

Breaks

Can't stand his ground

The jellyfish arose

No spine

Bellies under

Just another story...

A man

With no plan

Broken hearts

Broken dreams

We played our parts

Danced with our souls

Just another story

Told

The truth is a lie
The lie is the truth
Twisted and coerced
Matters in a frame
The picture
unfolding
Not gently
exploding
Just another story...

No longer hurts
My soul is protected
from predators
who prey...
Just another story...
Have a nice day!

Not so simple
to end it this way
All the positive words
flowing
yet
the loss
of  a best friend
won't simply go away
Just another story...

For years,
your words were the first I heard
as I woke to the morning sun...
your voice,
so soothing
helping me in so many ways,
my love, my heart
is now betrayed
How can you do this?
Just another story...

We walked many miles a day
becoming closer and closer
yet,
you let it end this way...
Just another story...

How we found our way
I have much to say
Yet guarding my words
So many hearts involved...
Just another story...

Nowhere to go,
Nowhere to hide,
Raw emotions
crying softly...
how many times did I say...
let me go...
Yet would always come back to you
Just another story...

Does it end this way?

It has to.
The ending
will bring
new beginnings...
The old must go...
Just another story..
memoir in my book
My best friend you will always be
if only in memory

Just another story....

C'est moi!
