Night Regrets
For the breakup nonet challenge
Lying beside who once was my all
Sadly, she's set for a huge fall
Our love, once so very sweet
Now smolders at my feet
Once I was so sure
Now I've met her
My new ALL ... ...
For now ...
Breathe
********************************
The above was kind of inspired by the old classic song "Linda on My Mind" by Conway Twitty ... Minus the part where the new love is a friend of the soon to be ex wife... :-)
