When I read sad and lonely
poems of those
going through pain
heartache of     broken

Pain and  hurt  of rejection
of a love      faded
leaving empty space within
deep inner beings of

A void where completeness
warmth once occupied
hearts now aching
now broken     cold within

When I read of
this devastation    hurt, pain
many heart cries
looking for   release of

I think of me and you....
Of how that even though
we are sad and lonely
when space is between

We are so blessed to have
love for each other
A love of desire and need
passion and warmth

A love with fulfilment    of completeness
in which hearts
blend into   one
keeping us ever close        even in distance

in this space that hurts so badly.......

This was very compassionate, and you know Ethel...it is because of loss that we learn to idenify and appreciate the gold along our journey.  While you gift us with the pleasure of the love you enjoy, you also remind us to reach high and know that life is about change...and that requires patience.
Hugs to you,
TD
