    I'm so excited. The publisher sent me a picture of the cover of my novel today to see if I like it. It seems surreal that next year I'm going to be published.😉🤗❤️

    The sea froths and foams Caressing my feet The sun shines But it doesn’t warm me I’m shivering Feeling brutally cold It’s you that I long for Where did you go? I’ve waited all night Why didn’t you show? mybook.to/Quigley_Bereft #BooksWorthReading #lovestory #poetry

    Visualizing our last time At the cave It seems like yesterday When we lay Together listening To birds & the sea Playing a symphony Two hearts in harmony Wanting the world to stand still What happened to you and me? #goodread #poetrylovers #Lovestory #book mybook.to/Quigley_Bereft

    Lying next to you Is all I want to do Watching the sun rise again Listening to the ocean-deep The cave cries While I weep Thinking of you Birds flutter overhead The day feels me with dread I can't cope Feel like I'm hanging from a rope Love lost Wanting you Link in Bio #poetry

    Floundering Diving into the deep Crevices of the sea In my dream Alone again Just us too I want to wake And relive the memory Of being with you As I toil the soil To dig in fence posts My callouses bleed For what once was mybook.to/Quigley_Bereft
