indulgence


..bottle of wine almost empty.
music playing in the background
and i'm sitting on my sofa, alone.
thinking about you.

it's been a while.  a long while since i've done it.

sigh.

don't know what triggered it.  just did.

you're everywhere.

if i close my eyes i see you.

hear your laughter

picture you, smiling at me

our conversations that lasted into the wee hours of the morning

your touch

kissing

making love

sweet

passionately

words, so many left unsaid...

i take in the last drop of wine.

savoring it.

breathing it.

almost as if you are here.

tomorrow all will be normal again.

but just for tonight,

just for a little bit,

i'm going to let my mind and my heart, have their way.

Anyone who was once important in our life leaves an indelible mark. We can't help but sometimes think of them in detailed and intimate ways. Over time and with a healthy attitude it happens less and we enjoy it more so than having it be a painful thing.

Robin- Yes,this is true. It's nice to revisit sometimes.

Robyn- Aww, thanks so much! I'm glad you enjoy it.

Red- Totally agree. I revisit from time to time, but never stay too long. Not healthy for me.

YRJ- Very true. I believe that time does heal all wounds, as cliche as that sounds. It really does.
