All I am—
Is being
Missing you  . . .

And in your place
I’ve made a heart
Filled with poetry
Music
Art

So in truth
If I must tell
Your absence
Has been miracle

That were I given
A chance again
To have you near
I would refrain . . .

For you see . . .
My vacant misery—

I’ve learned that life
Is good

A nice edification of Helen's poem John.

I understand these--and being the confused being I am, I am never sure if I miss the person themself, or the person I was at the time I was with them...

sigh
understanding the moment
and the reasons for refrain
