Upon request,
I picked up pen
to write
my story over--
I painted days
with skies of blue
and planted
fields of clover.
I dried my tears
of wasted years
each page
a simple rhyme...
and as I wrote,
my heart just broke--
a wail of words
from mime.

Torrential rain--
glass sheets of pain,
a storm that travels sea...
The rocking boat,
remained afloat,
most miraculously.
And at last
when storm had passed,
a rainbow, I did see.
When then occurred
these simple words:
"My life is boring
without me..."

You said it girl.  You are the sunshine in YOUR life and YOU are the reason that life is at all.  Wonderful write and after reading that emotional roller coaster of words I am drained.

Loved the poem, but for some reason the second part jumped out at me more, wonderfully written.
