Not much closure was given when Kitty's chose to leave. You know it was a hard goodbye & a difficult decision to throw away all those years. She didn't have much choice. She knew it would be better for them in the end. Memories were all she took, she left everything & everyone in Dodge. The poem touches on that choice & the dark days that followed. A quick stroll down memory lane..

A traveling gypsy floats into Dodge. Not much is known about them at the time, so everyone is a little uneasy. Matt can't shake a feeling of familiarity. She has a bag of bones that she reads as they scatter... They tell a story. An old tale Matt knows well.

(May I take you're order? - I'll have what she's having. I want what she's got.) Recently losing her husband, an elderly widow admires Matt & Kitty as they dance. Mourning the sadness, they help her find the smile she's been missing. - Song Based Short Story :)

You grow - You follow your heart - You live your life. Everything seems to change right along with you. Time flies by. You file away old memories and work to make new ones. A friend from Kitty's past visits Dodge... confirming some things never change. A short story.

Matt's 'Marshal Status' has to be updated every so often, so he is sworn in every 5 years... A short story about the first 5 year mark, a nightmare, and the 15 year mark... Over the years Matt and Kitty learn, grow, and discover Le vie est beau (Life is Beautiful).

Hold on tight.. Don't let me fall... I am fragile... I am glass

Their eyes told their story. Their eyes showed their love. Their eyes held their future. - Just a quick tale.

Matt and Kitty have been out of town. Both on business. They haven't seen much of each other but plan to fix that the coming weekend. Matt has Outlaw Tom McLanden in jail and has to take him to Wichita. Which means pushing weekend plans back.
