The man I love
is so far away
and it took that
for me to admit,
to him,
to myself.
I never saw and
neither did he.
Now we want
what we had.
Hopefully that
can be obtained
once more.
Missing him is
killing me.
Apparently,
I only learn
through pain.

"I am nae poet, in a sense;
But just a rhymer like by chance..."
-Robert Burns

We must both go to the same school of hard knocks.. A good write my friend.

With perseverance even the snail reached the Ark.

perhaps we often learn through pain, but not neccessarily 'only'.  

hrrm... let's see... ah! yes...

the day came to pass
i learned from days past
magic errupted
though pain still present
it now had meaning
a great many things
suddenly made sense
