Elegy To My Happiness

In the          crispy,            frozen     wind,
I      stand, as I       stare     at an epitaph
    that   you molded         with   your own
hands,       like  Michelangelo        between   
     a  jar    of wine.

Before,    I didn't   see it like   an    epitaph;
    I saw it      as a        sign of    bliss       and  love
in its         pristine    state.    What  you        did 
    to    me  left        me       wounded;
broken  from     your affair.

How    could   you,     darling?

I look        at  our    picture, 
   like   a teary     sunset       seeing  our     faces
 saying    "We Loved each Other"........
