A friend said farewell today
She loved me from afar
I was all she valued,
I could be her rising star

We talked at length of life
We were much attuned and mellow
Touching souls in the night
I was such a lucky fellow

We are too close, she said
You’re with me, night and day
I can’t think, I cannot breathe
I cannot care this way

I drain my coffee cup
Look out to the sun’s array
I quiver in my sorrow
A friend said farewell today

Through rubble and trouble and dark of night
The yawn of a dawn will hasten the light

Welcome to Passions, KayJay...we have something in common...but you will find out, soon enough...

Please, check your E-mail for a Special Greeting!  I think you're going to like it around here!

I would rather be silent and write, than speak loudly and be bound.

Sorry...sometimes being close is too close.
And some have problems getting used to that
personal space being stepped into...

Doesn't make love easier, trying to figure
it out all the time....Trust me,  33 years
of relationships....and I don't have it all
figured out yet....But, I also believe that
I am not the exception to the fact...

Hang in there!  And a nice poem, BTW....
