Another life
Free from the trammels of my mind I followed the rainbow of my imagination finally allowing myself to find the pot of gold at the end. It was You. For a few moments I gave myself permission to chase down the dreams of another life and what it would be like. A cold Christmas. AContinue reading “Another life”
