ADIEU

My brain cannot wrap itself
around all that has happened
in the last 24 hours.

The decisions I had to make
My psyche shuddering through
quickly and easily – a matter of love

Now, turning over in my mind
ALL  the things we said to each other,.
Consciousness evades me.
I see your face gradually change
 from smiling to  anguish: writhing in pain.Then I realize I’ll not see you again.

Trees appear everywhere and I am in
a forest of verdure and wildflowers
I feel so warm and loved.
I remember our night walks in the rain
Never to take place again.But you  will be with me always.

             Adieu
