Poem With No Title
I cried a river.
Yet, there were no tears to dry.
Just internal sighs.
Awaiting your nod,
Am I to stay or to go?
I’m strong but tired.
I can see the light.
You are but a shadow, now.
I had hoped for more.
We have everything.
You have always been missing.
I didn’t see you there.
Driven by duty.
Blinded seeking clarity.
Taken down by fears.
May we both be healed.

Re. Untitled
What you captured with these words is amazing. The constant ache in the heart.
Waiting to see if it will come to fruition but also too tired to care.
This is so much more than a poem.
Ending with hope for healing.
So you:)

Dear A,
Thank you. As I’m feeling a bit raw at present I’m extremely touched by your comment and can’t gush my appreciation as I’d like to. But thank you for your sweet kindness and the RL addition to your list. X

Heartache of this magnitude is almost untouchable. There is no special balm, or words that make it better. This type takes time.
You have laid out lines of sadness here and it aches across the page. It's real and it's raw. It's poetry, my friend.

Dear E,
With profound gratitude thank you. And the RL add included.
Yes, this is as truthful a poem as I’ve ever allowed myself to write and post. Untouchable is the perfect way to see this because the heartache of this…doesn’t have words. It feels more of a feral scream. My Eternal thanks for hearing this scream. X

My beautiful friend —
To be this open and revealing is to allow a bit of fresh air to access an aching wound in hopes of helping it to heal. A pertinent reminder= You're braver than you think or realize, dear lady.
I am sending out wishes of strength, fortitude and compassion - towards yourself. Sometimes we can forget to really take care of ourselves because we've been so engrossed in taking care of others. You're more than worthy of being blissfully happy... as that is my deep, heartfelt desire for you.
Thank you for sharing this piece - 🙏🏻
You have us, this eclectic support systematic via DUP.... whenever you need it.
All my warmest regards,
🌹 - B

Dear BV,
What do I say that would be an adequate response to this beautiful gift of support?
Thank you seems trite but what’s left? Cyber hugs? What are these exactly? Ugh.
Thank you and cyber hugs it is. I’m just not that creative to change actions and lexicons tonight. But know this, I’ve taken your words to heart and I’m going to spread a bit of compassion my way. You’re right. I’m very difficult on myself… alas.
Thankfully, you’ll set me right and I’m really grateful. Thank you for the RL and Thank you again for such a lovely and thoughtful response. Xo

Oh, dearest H,
I feel this one deep. That sense of duty & commitment while wishing for something more substantial than shadows.... beautiful, brave expression, my friend. I fully believe that you are strong, but it's OK to be tired sometimes. Hang in there....

Dear K,
Thank you for validating my exhaustion and completely getting the wish for something more substantial! I know the tide will change but it’s an incredible gift to receive your thoughtful support and encouragement. It means far more than how I could express it to you in writing. Xxoo H🌷
PS, I forgot to thank you for the RL. X

I think what makes this poem with no title a poem with great substance is that it isn't a pity party, but an exercise in shoving aside all the blubbering babble of the ego to reveal that the welfare of others is still a concern.

Dear JB,
Thank you, I think long ago and far away I may have taken pity
upon myself but age and experience have a way of seeing things differently. Your observant and kind comment of this poem has eased a great burden, and thank you for the RL add. Many thanks you’s.

"I’m strong but tired." Alright, you had me by this point.
I watched a movie the other day, Guest Artist, a playwright essentially says, what we're looking for in the art of others is ourselves, when we speak from our humanity, our voice becomes the voice of our audience. I feel that in the depth and honesty of this writing.

Dear D,
Thank you for the honor of RL. And thank you for sharing this info about the movie. I find this extremely interesting because it’s rather true now I see it in writing and wonder how often I’ve done this without realizing it. As always, thank you for this lovely response and your kindness. Happy New Year. X

Incredible, simply incredible.
Loved that opening line. Folks think tears come down to the physical lacrimation, but those we cry on the inside are just as if not more intense.
Bravo.

Dear W,
Thank you very much for this lovely response and RL add. I would agree the tears internally shed can be way more intense. Perhaps because it’s more feral? Who can say. However, your comment is an uplifting and much appreciated way to close out a very long year and I thank you. Happy New Year! H🌷
