Bachelorette

I found me when I lost you Can’t explain why I feel free Never was unwilling or untrue I just feel that sky is freeing And believing myself to be spiritually Free as a red herring how Could I ever be caged willingly I eagerly embrace a loveless cage One where no handcuff wedding ring is placed On my finger to linger and cement my place Oh how could I make this mistake I’m a bachelorette in satin dress Happy to be pursued unwilling to be glued To another’s idea of who I am supposed to be for him for me I’m a bird who hates the cage of matrimony

'I found me when I lost you' resonates so well with me. In fact, even when the loss weighs heavy on my heart, it eventually sets me free. Bravo! :) Gershon
