Rebound

At season’s end,
we parted ways.
No reason to pretend;
no reason to delay.

We did our best,
we gave our all,
we even took a rest,
but we were doomed to fall.

Our love is through,
though it was brief.
And to get over you,
I started courting Grief.

She and I are the life of the party,
making our friends gossip and worry.
