Please see me

As these slices portray.
These poetic bits
Of my whole
They are, I’m afraid
The best of me,
What I could have been
If the world
Hadn’t roughed me up.

Please hear me

And the truth I speak
For I have wrongs to right
And stories to tell.
Time I’m afraid
Is rubbing me hard.

Please remember me.

For the clarity of my words,
The hardness of my edges.
People I’m afraid
Will miss the hidden
Love for you all
That rests softly in my heart.

Yoin.

Yo Yoinn,

Of course you will be remembered, as will all of us on Pip.  Time is rubbing us all hard.

This is one of those poems that I kind of wish I had written.  I'll remember you and today - I'll think of you and smile.  Roughed up or not, you are among my favorites.
