Emptiness

I cannot pray tonight
That you should come,
So worn that prayer is now.
But I will ask
That in some way
A friend should grant
That I might speak to him
Your name...
And in the speaking know
A richness that my soul
Has yearned for long
In vain!

as usual, richly classic, reading smooth and flowing, with so much depth and passion!

With the word, I am mighty, with the pen I am free..

Rex ... this has a very unique tone and voice ... there is an emptiness to it ... to have to rely on a friend to hear another's name, so that you will feel fulfilled ... nice touch.

Hey Rex, how nice to see you. I hope you aren't sad, as this sounds.

Rex, this pulls at the heart. So sad and yet beautiful.
