Softly, softly

                                                     Gently…
                                                          You pushed past my walls
                                                          And saw me for who I am

                                                     Tenderly…
                                                          You drank from my lips
                                                           The sweetest kiss

                                                     Silently…
                                                          You crept into the night
                                                          To love me from afar

                                                     Softly…
                                                               Softly
                                                               I weep

Short, but it says a lot. I'm sorry to hear about your pain, Tara.

Hope you're smiling soon.

Sven, unfortunately, too many hearts know this pain.

Robert Joseph, thank you for taking the time to respond to my poetry.
