The Final Act

 

 

  Startled, awakening
to the sound
of a voice,
unfamiliar..
echoing
down the hall.
Strange memories
surround and
invade consciousness.
 Just yesterday
 there
was solitude.
And now,
a new life,
adjustments
to make.
Silken sheets,
warm indented spot.
Heart pounding..
deafening,
fearful.
 Disappointment
or
happiness.
A love affair
 beginning......or
ending?
  Overwhelming
 uncertainties,
anxiety..

Inner knowing that
the hand must
be played out
until
the final act....
the curtain
falls.

.....this time....
