Offering!

As I realized she was gone.
I could smile or couldn't;
I do not remember.
She had said that she
had to leave sooner or later.
I laughed.
I held her.
I smiled.
We laughed together.
I assured I was ready
for whatever
she had to offer.
And she left one day
and I was waiting at the
same place for three days
before I realized
The absence being offered
-and she wasn't all absent.
Was I ready for whatever
she had to offer?

Well!
