The yell of my name Felt like a thousand pulls From many unyielding directions Visible and some, unknownThat sharp lurch in my chest As I suck in a quiet breath with a forced smile Watching the world crumble around me Is very real and not a dream

My fondness for historical dramas knows no bounds and you can bet I'll be on the search for those I haven't watched yet. So I found My Lady Jane (2024) and after binge-watching all eight episodes over the weekend, I've dubbed it a real treat and the best show recently.

I forced a smile as I watched my best friend pull his fiancée into a tight embrace and spin her around. Laura squealed with delight before succumbing to David's kiss.

Clara huffed and puffed, hands akimbo as she paced the living room of their hotel suite.

Lounge time was over.

The years pass on My breath fizzles away Leaving an empty shellHollow sound the echo No heart in the core For it is emptyYour absence wounds me And I'm left helpless Yet the river must flow onThe waterfall runs its course Until droplets feed the ground And it dries up
