Something could have been
Something Lost

I awakened to the sun streaming through the top of a half-curtained window, and her perfume followed me from my dream. It was the beginning of a new life, the end of a dreaded past, and I anxiously sought the warmth which I thought awaited me.

When I rolled, my hand slapped empty sheets, and I felt the slick surface of paper underneath.

"It was nice, but don't call."

Clouds suddenly gathered, dowsing my future with lonesome shadows, shrouding hopeful dreams.
