THE WAILING FINISH

Folder: 
JOURNAL#18

I valiantly try to cast myself back

to that very spot

on that long, lonely stretch of beautiful

Monterey Beach

at that precise moment

when I believed so very strongly that I

was exactly where I should always endeavor

to be

with and in love with you

yet now a much deeper and far more personal

truth tells me an entirely different tale

one of unbelievable misguidance

fractured insight

and overwhelming amounts of emotional betrayal

in my shocked disbelief and heartbreak

the indomitable silence finally spoke to me

and the words were loud and clear

'Its as good as over my girl!'

and you have no idea how much that relieved

yet scared me.............................
