she startled him

                      enough to wake him

he laid there still  eyes closed

if he opened his eyes shed be there

if he did an she wasntwhich is what he expectedknew 

                                                          shed break his heart again 

hed have to pick up the pieces again glue them back together  again

                                                                             funny

hearts can be glued back together as many times as theyre broken

as many times as one has the will to endure 

he could still hear her voice  her words 

                                           Dadu . . I love you to death.

lying there he listened for her breath

 

   no

a mariachi gently  Just open your eyes  You know

he did

she wouldnt be there

he was dreaming

 

   he opened themshe wasnt 

she loved him to death

   hell love her until he dies
