i had a dream last night that you came to see me then told me you had got married you were looking at me with doe eyes and blinking at me like a child who needed attention i looked at your hand with the ring on and ignored what you had said and just got on with what i was doing as i did not want to seem unprofessional but that was the question really wasn’t it whether or not i would retain my professional stance and still work with you however some thing was lost forever something far more important than work something that was fundamental to the equilibrium of every human relationship that border had been crossed and i would never think of you in the same way my unconventional life and the lessons that i had had to learn by experience had taught me how to value my self worth and protect my vulnerable heart so i silently got on with the day helping you and prepared myself to say goodbye
