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... :-)
