Hindsight Forward

This is written about someone that changed my life and is on my mind daily.

Hindsight Forward

Excuse me please, one more drink, Whisper to her, turn and noone there. Ghost laughter reminiscent, of muerta's only fear.

Her name rolls off subconscious tongue, Her smile floats in memory pure. This disease, loneliness sung, One more dirty martini, I am sure. Closer, closer, grey geese flew. Beauty's liquid alternative.

Fate's intuition knew, Cupid's winged superlative. Please forgive me,

I didn't know how, Change... doubt's enemy. I was victim, not prowl.

In his arms I watch my wife, Teary eyed pictures astrew, Better than me... is your life. Tetrium aliquid, the glue. Staring at pictures of you. Savannah's unborn memories blew, This purgatory mirror a new,

Punxitony's shadow seen through...
