Funny how life works
It was a Thursday
We worked horses till noon
Went to the courthouse and got married
The day we divorced
I worked horses till noon on a Monday
It’s that mundane
The beginning and end of an entire life
It’s that ruthless
The birth and murder
It’s that silent
The bliss and the pain
I bought a bottle of Black Velvet for the drive home
You taught me that too
Tear drops on tan hands
I’ll bite my lip
See you somewhere down the road again
My hair is longer than you've ever seen it
I'm healthier and stronger than you've ever seen
You missed the best parts of me
I wish you would've stayed around to see it
XoXo, Gussie
Black Velvet 🖤
