My X-Beau

 

 

The phone rang - Hello?

A voice from the past

It was my x-beau

How are you, I asked! 

I’m just fine, he said

Old thoughts came alive

I felt swirls in my head

Divorce I did survive 

25 years marriage shared

We raised three children

Once he showed me he cared

This man was one in a million

But, his love for me died

I had to go it alone

For years I silently cried

I struggled on my own

Departed from my only true love

I still admire and think so much of
