Another Anniversary
#2 of Poetry, both old and new
Today is the day I met my departed fiancé, Chucky, who died of a heroin overdose on October 16, 2013. So tonight is for drinking, tonight is for thinking, and remembering how we lived and loved. "We're so free, you and me... We even share the stars..." -- Chucky Mallon, August 12, 2010, Eleanor Tinsley park, on the hillside. I remember and I miss you.
Another Anniversary,
Where I find myself
Alone...
I think upon the memories
We shared when we
Were one...
A once important part of me,
I lost when you
were gone...
Another anniversary,
I dream I'm in
Your arms...
To turn the clock
Reversible,
To feel that touch again...
A love I won't allow
To leave,
I'm yours until the end....
I curl up and I
Try to sleep,
Upon my empty bed...
I cry and grasp upon
The key,
And hear the words you said...
"I know our life isn't the best,
But you're the one for me.
And one day when We've
Gotten free "
"I'll buy you a ring..."
