The rope…from here known as the noose

The noose got a little tighter today. A little smaller. And, the calm has gotten a little more, well, calmer. I haven’t smoked in five years. Wow. Newport. Ramblings of a desperate person. I will see someone I love dearly on Wednesday. I have said goodbye to others – explained to them how hard I have tried and how tired I am. I think they understand. It feels good and I smile. I love them all, so very, very much. I forgive those who don’t understand. I smile. A week and we shall see. Thanks for reading. And, thanks to those who pray, in vain, for my soul.
