Not Yet Quite Forgot

Neville

Not Yet Quite Forgot

 

the last time I saw her

she was laying with a stranger

beneath an ancient quilt

atop a memory foam mattress

   of many years lieing

   and would not look back at me

   despite mouthing my name ..

    Ouch. That must have hurt. This scene plays out clearly before my eyes.

    a memory foam mattress
    of many years lieing - now that is quite brill Neville.

    That tells a story. I saw her mouthing your name. The air was blue.

    Brevity which turns into a movie. Not something you would forget easily, though time may soften the blow.

    Hits the emotions. So well related. Have an easy day my friend.

                      They do if you keep them all safe in a book of em .. I got ten to date .. books that is .. Why not take a look .. its all for a good cause .. Chirpy chirpy cheap cheap .. and less than three pints of warm English beer ... Neville πŸ˜ŽπŸ€πŸ‘
