Secret

I keep a secret from you unwillingly it’s not elaborate or curious it’s not intentional it involves growing old my veins showing blue through my skin it’s about how I know I need to take responsibility how I suspect that in the end I will have to do this on my own

I read a wonderful short story once about a man who simply couldn't come to terms with the death of his lifelong partner.

Eventually, a simple question helped him see the silver lining.

"Would you have wanted her to be the one that was left alone?"
