I've missed you long and wearily
Your touch has faded slow
My future calls me forward now
Reluctant, I must go


A bird never flies so high that it can't hit the ground

This is a sweet, sad poem  (Your picture startled me.  You look so much like my husband did at that age, including the dimpled chin.  Joyce

yep, it happens that way. Sounds like you're dealing with it well though. Very sad, but no one ever said life was all happy, did they?

You have a way

of saying quietly
all that needs to be said

Kris...been there..done that....many many times,  and each was just as unpleasant as
the one before....something you never quite
get used to...

Well expressed from the heart...
