She got me
a coffee,
found the
best table
against sunset
facing beach,
where the waves
were visibly up set
like my knotted mind.
a woman
with whacky humor
she tried
to keep me
laughing all along,
but I couldn't
get over
the feeling of
emptiness,
once everything
would change
right after this bend.
she pretended
like a trained actress,
but I was yet to come  to terms
with the reality.
