[hometext] => I wrote this for my new husband, while he was going through a very trying, stressful time. It was a time where he was looking to me for strength and I was being selfish and pitiful, just wanting it to be over, but at the same time wanting him to be OK.
[bodytext] => It’s not so easy to stay uninvolved I just hide behind my poetry Running away was your method I see it’s my method too at times But it doesn’t seem to soften The occasional suffering I feel It just hurts all the more by myself When wonderful and dreadful September Came and went, October too On and on to here in June I thought of my issues and thought of myself When it is you who bears it most The clandestine burden, the trepidation And you who may wear the “scarlet letter” I need you to know you are essential to me If there is no opportunity for us It will be the stark beginning Of my slow and guilty demise Like smoke that drifts Across the invisible air In a slow rolling motion My mind, body, and soul Would tumble in the cross winds Ultimately this will somehow pass Life will go on and this will all be Something to help discover our strength, A lesson to learn from in the face of it Here and now, find strength my love In the hope for what is yet good to come Joy in veracity, sharing in one accord forever ~ Robbie ~ May 20, 2003 Copyright ©2003 Robbie B [comments] => 0 [counter] => 165 [topic] => 31 [informant] => robbieb [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => StoryPoetry )

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. ©
