Between the Lines

I missed the mark,
that of the 14th
and the meaning behind
what could have been.
Sitting here wondering
where the words have gone.
Why the need still uneases this heart
and patronizes my thoughts
loading me with a guilt
not deserved.
It must be my lot in life to hold such,
as I punish myself daily
drowning in the infinite hardships
accruing, mostly in the mind
but trickling over into the heart
that dies a little more each day
for lack of care and
avoidance of love.

Dear Maureen, this is so painful, you have put your heart into this melancholic write. You have the choice, it doesn't have to be your lot ... may you let love in.
I send you mine. Hugs. Margherita

Would you like me to get my watering can?

sometimes we flee from what we should dive into...some of the best accomplishments in our lives, are those we fear, yet walk right into without any apprehensions.  God bless and good luck
