he did not like to talk
about his wife or his kids

and you could see by his eyes
he had nothing but blackness to give

thankfully for him
there is a dead line within us
where pain ceases and you forget

Yep James, I have known people like this - lived with one. And it is lucky for them that the rest of those around him forget.

Dark, yes. But also very true. This one hits you in the gut.

James, this is truly a sad poem, but do I see a tiny bit of light at the end? I hope so and hugs, ME
