Home of Pie

First of all, HI! I just got back from Georgia and I missed you all! Second, I am so so so excited to announce that the short story that I have been posting here and on a fiction thread has now had over 530 reads in just two weeks! AH! I am considering actually making a go at being an author! How fun would that be?!!

Also, I wrote this during our seven hour drive home:

It's times like this

that drive me mad

my thoughts are racing

and I've got it bad

Sitting here driving

My thoughts, they roam

right back to you

and our once happy home

What's lost, what's gained

no ones to blame

when two people grow apart

and extinguish loves flame

The habits must be broken

and the friends you share are lost

belongings can be replaced

but the rest comes at a cost

The marks left are changing

and you just hope to learn

so that when you find your person

you don't get burned

So thank you for the lessons

I carry reminders of our time

and though I had to walk away

I think fondly of when you were mine.
