this morning #1155.

this morning, i slipped it onto a thin chain. my wedding band, officially banished from my hand. i wanted to be well aware that it was there but i wanted that knowledge to be mine alone. she was gone. my love for her was not. you would’ve thought that i would’ve tossed the ring right into the drink but i’ve never been the type to push my pain away like that. i like to let it hang around until it almost kills me. some might call it punishment. in this case, i’ll let it dangle around my neck & every time it bounces off my chest, i’ll think of her. maybe one of these days i won’t need the reminder but until that day comes, i’ll hold her close to my heart. it’s simply too soon for “til’ death do us part.”
