Can't


If I wanted her to leave
perhaps the missing
wouldn't be so bad.

If she gave me a reasonable
explanation, maybe I
wouldn't be so sad.

I wanted to write
of something more
than my missing her.

Sometimes I can.
Most of the time...
I can not.

When one's heart is so heavy all that can come out is it's ache.  That's what good poetry is all about...letting it all hang out.  Plus I think it's grand therapy.

I think most of us can understand and relate to this.  It doesn't make it any easier, I know, but perhaps it's all part and parcel of being human.

May your missing of her, be replaced by sweet remembrances that can warm your heart on days when winds blow cold.

warm,aloha hugs,
