Anderson, California My name is Bev. I am a single Mom. I have been writing poems and stories since I was a young girl. Writing was once a passion for me, then somehow life got in the way. Now as a divorced woman, starting over, I am revisiting my love for the written word.
Fragmented pieces of my heart are scattered on the floor. As I try my best to comprehend, "I don't love you anymore." My mind is racing to and fro. My heart is beating fast. As my world comes crashing at my feet, a replay from my past. Why is it I can't win this game, no matter how I try? Don't I deserve to be in love? Or do I only deserve to cry? I cannot make you love me no matter how I feel. I cannot change the circumstance by pretending this isn't real. So I pick my heart up off the floor, and I slowly walk away; leaving behind what once was mine, as there's nothing left to say. Someday I may be whole once more, but surely not today

Losing the Game
Petals soft as silk itself, Pressed in a book upon a shelf. Memories they leave behind Remind me of another time.
