THREE FORKS

We were all together,
For a very long, long time,
Then one day it all changes,
For no reason nor no rhyme

But the future beckons to us,
And the ones we held so dear,
Fade away like windswept clouds,
As do our fallen tears

Then suddenly as they left us,
Memories come flooding back,
And the trigger something small,
And the dam begins to crack

And it happened just today,
Doing something so mundane,
That I had to catch my breath,
Because I could not dull the pain

For as I set the table,
It shook me to my core,
I sobbed a silent prayer,
Three forks instead of four
