breakup nonet

I don’t remember the beginning

pursuing, winning me over

He made it all exciting.

- secrets woven in lies -

A clean soul SCOOPED me

into his arms,

from that muck,

and loved

me.

** Memories of a jerk who created excitement, anger, incredible hurt and then a wonderful man with a kind and true soul found me - so good that how the other relationship began is lost to my memory - a thankful good riddance.
