Our Romantic Comedy

I thought about you today as I ambled with dogs past your home,

and surprisingly, in my chest, felt no tug, no pain, just a romantic comedy smile.

These two hallowed lives, connected briefly with our full permission and the careful attempts to love and care were true and flawless,

for when our time had passed,

we both smiled and each turned back to loving our sacred lives, alone.

All the better for having loved each other in our way.
