For Danielle, with love
.
Breaking heart
Taking future
Making mockery
I doubt the happy start,
wrapped in a painful ending,
rending all I believed,
feeling deceived
by the life we’d conceived.
Paths onward wending,
sending me,
setting me free.
Taking me,
creating me,
letting me
be,
Breaking past,
Taking a stance,
Making me dance.

keep writing.
A spiraling, ever-surprising maturation is hinted here.
I think that’s part of the cycle of grief.
I love you so much. You nailed it
You are strong. You are invincible. You are woman!
