Post #39, How Should I feel?

"I have news" he tells me

I listen, my eyes growing wide

My companion

My best friend

My-

"Congradulations" I say

I feel my heart turning tide

And I force a smile wide

What now?

Can we keep going as before?

Has something changed

Now that you're not alone... Anymore?

Is this my karma

For turning the other away?

Or just the beuty of life...

In a way?

I feel my heart sink

And as I worry

My whole body submerges in ink

But then... I hear him laughing

He turns to me and tells the joke

My conciousness snaps back

And my sadness brokes

It's impossible with him

To feel anything but happiness

Even though, I know
That sounds like nothing but sappiness

I'm fine

I'm good

I'm great

Because the the truth is

He's still here

Not alone, he's accompanied

But the fact that he's right there

Is enough

To brighten my day.
