My Heart Suddenly Outgrows Its space

MY HEART SUDDENLY OUTGROWS ITS SPACE
My heart suddenly outgrows its space at the mention of your name.
There is a rumor that I shall forget you someday….
I wonder where that strange narrative came from…
It holds no truth.
I tried to forget you…
And I did my best at it.
But it is impossible for the human mind to forget anything.
This wind is lighter..
Carrying the sounds of your laughter to me.
You are the happiest you have ever been.
I cannot say I am happy for you…
That is a true lie.
But I can say you give me something to look forward to.
That the pains of truth will wear off someday…
The pains of the stinging truth….
That you would rather be alone than be with me.

The Voyeur's Incandescent Reasoning
The woman sat nonplussed, in the Waiting Room. In a sort of daze, looking straight ahead patiently. She had already had three small breakfast's that morning and a nip of sherry, this was not unusual she would typically wait until an hour after she took her anti-depressant and was her morning routine. She was merely following instructions she assured herself, shifted slightly in her seat and feeling a little heart burn thought, maybe she should skip lunch. Dom had said to have the task done this week. She was well used to his methods and desired to get this over and done with soon. She glanced at her watch, smiled weakly at the Receptionist who was there for a moment and then gone.
