Fragments

I sat quietly pondering your time of arrival
Day or night morning or noon happy or sad
The last conversation was strained innuendos 
Of selfless pleasures displacing your heart
And I cried for me for you for loss of us
Pictures broken glasses thrown ridiculous
I am you you are me interwoven as one
Deny to your demise for you shall rot from
The inside out as if a thousand inedible worms
Burrow their way through your body as if it
Were a living compost heap on two feet 
Goodbye my love sweet dreams

No. Lol. I was referring to a distasteful relationship not mine. It just worked so well in ink I thought it was humorous. Dark now reading your response I can imagine what you must think. Sorry. Absolutely fiction. Dear SO.
