How to Love?
who then could teach me
how to love?
so i can practice on myself
and untie the knots i pulled too tight
hey there! you look like you know
how to love
show me, let me feel this
thing i so desperately miss
and i don’t mean a kiss
there’s more they hide
and that’s the kind we forget to share
who will show me
..how to love?
is anyone left to exhibit
such a treasure??
or are we all just hurt and lonely
under one skin?

The author encourages honest critique.
There's such a dynamic poignancy within the heartbreaking questioning. I love the approach you've taken, which presses upon the reader such a familiar and resonant aching quandary .... We've all felt this way at some point but you brilliantly and poetically articulate it a way that leaves such a resounding and long lasting impression... It definitely stuck with me.
Excellent excellent work.
Thank you.

Dear T,
Stunning because it’s such a great question. I really admired the depth and conversation style of this piece. I only wish I had an answer for you. It’s a very reflective write that will work it’s magic on me for quite a while. H🌷
