He woke me at 3AM coming up the stairs singing “Sandy (Brandi if you remember the song), you’re a fine girl…”
This bartender who mixed my French 75‘s flirted his way to my bed… and he stayed a while.
One Valentine’s Day we had cocktails and watched sports, then quietly he walked me home. I waved goodbye from my 3rd floor window as I watched him walk away singing… “Sandy you’re a fine girl what a good wife you would be…”
It’s much easier when you leave love out of it.

L'amour et Psyche by Francois Edouard Picot, 1817, tells the story of Cupid and Psyche. In the Greek mythological story, Cupid would leave every morning before Psyche woke from her sleep. Psyche's outstretched arm shows the space where Cupid would have been sleeping, however he leaves her in the morning. A great depiction of the complexities of love, status and family. "The angel looks back at the sleeping beauty with a goodbye glance– the older cupid teaching us that love, if anything, is fleeting, and you never know when you’ll wake up and your arm will be outstretched around nothing."
