[hometext] => "Watching a loved one fight for his life."
[bodytext] => I look over at his slackened jaw and thankfully
hear a gentle rhythm to his breathing, sweat glistening on his brow from a journey he alone must take, faraway, even though he has never left his bed. I sit in my own solitude in a partially darkened room, trying to smile, so much time to reminisce when our laughter and our passions filled us both to saturation. Back then never thinking when our winding roads of abandonment would bring us to this moment, stopping us in our tracks catching us between the gnarly jaws of life and death. The nurse emerges, slicing through my morose, as she interrupts his voyage, apologizing and at the same time becoming the villain in her quest of saving lives. He sleeps once more, grimacing, trying to find the niche his bed has to offer, as I wish I could own his pain for once, while I pray his shoulders can continue to bear the weight of getting old.

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. ©
