Not teardrops, no
just innocent dampness
uncalled for.
No, I would not cry for him
anymore-not at all.

Not chest pain so fierce it
imitates a heart attack.
No,not even close
just a twinge, really.

Not insane longings, desire
to make me fall to my knees
no-of course not
just the slightest little memory
nothing else.

No, I'm sure you have been misled
I would never hold on to nothing
as though it were the only thing.
Not me-how absurd...

Oh Sandra, through your words of denial I feel the pain your mind tells your soul doesn't exist.Love is the one emotion that can deal as harsh a pain as it gifts greatest joy!! Hugz of compassion dear friend!!

You've captured this emotion wonderfully. I compliment you!
