The Goose Drank Wine

haphazard style and manner

he said he was
mis
er
able
before

even before she

left

him
so i believe him
becausethe same
goes
in my case
happ
i
ness
is something i
had yet
to
see
until he
picked apart
my
heart
and tossed
parts
unneeded
and cherished
bits i'd
hidden
from the start
because he
kisses bruises
and finds
where tears
fall
and stops
them all
from coming back
and all these
words
we've spoken
but the
hyp

o

cri

cy

we've
ridden
and again we say it
now with
meaning
shallowness
we've traded
in
and we'll

ne
ver
ev
er
look back
because leaving is so
far
fetched
for
we've given all
we've been able to
give
and i swear to keep
on loving you
with all i have
for
as
long
as
we
both
shall
live

I admire the way you consistently compose masterful works of art!
I enjoy the themes of your writing, it always feels like a movie...
You have a lifelong reader.
