Wrapped up in your life, this I know. Understandable (though secondary hurts) Such a small request a momentary thought a brief note some hint that I do not hang out here in the wind completely alone. You are indulged, adored given credit-due or not excused endlessly offered the gift of my love (which you take at your leisure) I work hard at it, this fantasy. Plan endlessly dream constantly prepare obsessively for our rendesvous. And you? You are mostly absent... |

So sad, cat. And still you express longing, desire and desperation with such beautiful words ... Lotharingia "Dreams are life, reality, creation" Miguel de Unanumo |

Sandra, I too had an absent one, even when present, now I live alone. I like it like that. Good poem. Nicely expressed frustration. Be well Kethry "It is the image in the mind that links us to lost treasures; but it is the loss that shapes the image, gathers the flowers weaves the garland."- |

Sandra.... You did an exceptional job on this! I feel the frustration and lonliness coming through. I have to agree with Kethry, insomuch as you can live with someone and still be alone. It's good to share with friends! Today is a gift.... That is why they call it 'the Present'! |

Sandra...I can relate to this like no other. I have to tell you though that mine is gone and it is over. Look for me to be writing sad ones for awhile...Dee "It doesn't matter who you love, or how you love, but that you love" Rod McKuen |

Cat, even if not absent in body they are in soul and that is what hurts.. I know. Great work  *Our deeds travel with us from afar, and what we have been makes us what we are..* Isis ~ Sovereign of the Spirit |

~Good gawd Cat!!! This is so spot on. Really portrays the hurt this causes.I can't tell you enough how this one lingers,......for a long, long time after reading. "Plan endlessly dream constantly prepare obsessively"........so real this. Take care you. *Peace. |
