135. Today

Today is just a day
When I needed to get away
I packed my bags just so
Not knowing where I would go
I climbed into my car
And drove to the local bar
I ordered a drink
Deciding just to think
The thoughts roared inside
Wondering if I wanted a bride
The pain still seems to linger
From the ring once on my finger
Although there is nothing to regret
It’s still difficult to forget
The hurt still beats in my heart
Warning me not to start
Alas I am in love again
Wondering just where to begin
After four more doubles
I realized life always has troubles
So I cast away my fears
And ordered the bar a round of beers
Later as I entered our house
I thanked God you would be my spouse
