First year anniversary

Since you left 
I have picked up the pieces
Of my shattered heart
Glued and taped together again
In stoic resolution
The valves that once 
Whooshed with glee
As we whiled the afternoon away 
Eating nonsensical 
Life-giving chocolate cake
I even got married_
You would have approved
Been happy for me
He is gentle (like you)
Loves me veritably (like you did)
Life does percolate new flavours 
Bursting with colour and verve
I carry the bag you made
Wear your stylish sensibilities 
With great fondness 
So you are never far away
In fact the jagged gaps 
In my heart remind me 
All the time.
