Healing I awake frightened, confused familiar warmth has disappeared. Four o’clock, wee hours at very best finding her in the living room dark. Legs tucked under, holding tattered blanket her tears wetting, matching pillow. Love washes over in wave after wave knowing she has, out here to cry. She left our bed to be alone to not wake me with her sorrow. Even in anguish, she thinks of me comes to the dark, alone to weep. Remembering a co-worker, once upon saying how she shines, brightens. Wonderous as she radiates love when to office she dropped by. I join her on our couch together we cry, memories cutting sharp. A sharing, never should have to be shared we hold, finally silent, spent as morning comes. Next morning, put on fresh face pretend our world; recovered, safe. Until the next, wee hours at very best crashing memories, tears... welcome another. bleeding... "Tis ink coming from his arm, Captain!" |

I'm left with a saddness. Yet, a warm feeling that love is there to carry one through that saddness - together. ...Give me the strength to walk the soft earth, a relative to all that is.... Black Eagle Oglala Sioux holy man |

I'm sorry you and she are having to go thru this process. It's so hard on both of you and it is hard on Mike and me, having to deal with it from so far away. You have my prayers and thoughts. Love you.... Sis Poetry~ Words falling on paper, painting a dream. Shawna R. Holder Boise, Idaho |

appreciate the input...but my work is not drawn from experience. My work is fiction, constructed, fabricated. Our personal relationship has never experienced the above piece... it is fiction. Thank y'all for the caring... bleeding... "Tis ink coming from his arm, Captain!" |
