Widow rules are fluid<\/p>\n
Three years they say<\/p>\n
A corner to be turned<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Still wearing the rings<\/p>\n
Twirling on and off<\/p>\n
Almost everyday<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Clothes are gone<\/p>\n
Papers are sorted<\/p>\n
His boots rest in the barn<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Almost out of sight<\/p>\n
With pictures helping<\/p>\n
Our one-way conversations<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
I can\u2019t do the rings<\/p>\n
Like a dead dog I will<\/p>\n
Miss them all the time<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
I chance being out of the game<\/p>\n
Unavailable should someone<\/p>\n
Try to love me again<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Weighing the risk cost<\/p>\n
Not choosing to be unmarried<\/p>\n
I keep them where they belong<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
