oh sweetie, this is excruciating. I understand so much of what you
have shared in this. Life and fate can be so cruel sometimes.

And what's worse is quite often, those we love know not what
they do. I admire your bravery. Thank you for sharing.

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
