After the Tempest

Waking up feeling sad this morning
the truth of now is finally dawning.
A conversation we had last night
brought perspective, into the light.

A couples dinner, a double date
past tense, much too late.
A beautiful home meant to share
a sad reminder of a broken pair.

Outside my window, drizzling rain
softly dulling down the pain.
As the sun breaks through, clouds of grey
shining down on me today.
