My Beloved

My beloved,
now in my past,
is having a
birthday, March 15th

I never thought,
I'd spend this time,
on her birthday,
after she's gone away.

I miss you my love,
after these many years.
No special dinner,
just a menu of tears.

I loved you more,
than I had a right to do.
Understandable to me,
for I still love you.

Happy heavenly birthday, Mrs. Fischer

I Didn't Ask

I didn't ask you to love me.
I never asked you to stay.
My inconsiderate attitude,
is driving you away.

No illusions of grandeur,
thinking I could be with you,
for it wouldn't be fair, anytime,
if you chose old vs. new.

I enjoyed being near you,
as you made me feel good,
but it was as one sided,
as I thought it would.

I ruined a relationship,
in a most selfish way,
while the person I loved,
has left, gone away.

My heart flutters,
when I hear my name,
your voice calling me,
yet here I remain.

Alone, in a crowd,
a new life to start,
as I try to find,
what's left in my heart.

A most difficult time,
in this old life of mine,
as I move forward,
encouraged by a glass of wine.

Recovery is slow,
as I have been told,
but emotions are there,
with memories of old.
