I miss you....it's just not enough.

by Poet on the Piano   Nov 26, 2011


Surrounding boxes
she never gets the chance
to see the vision ahead of the corners

.no air.

shut in from the inside,
able to do little as fog
strangles the blush from her skin,
dusting her with more than
nature's overdue frost.

Thinking about him only makes her
want the near end,
because a life without reaching him
is like breathing with a gun tied
behind your back,
it stares you in the face
and what are you to do when he
is nowhere you have looked.

it will be worth it-
for when she's an angel
she'll tell him that love
would have brought them together,
since i miss you
was simply not important
enough to take the time
to meet this chance-
for the last, blessed time.

    When I lost my best friend I felt like this, MaryAnne..like suffocating in my grief. I felt so sure this time around I was not strong enough to accept yet another personal loss, for I had suffered so many already. But guess what? Somehow I began to see the beauty of life again, and how we are living in His creation and that, if my friend was no longer willing to be in my world, it was his loss.

    The strength is always inside you, deep inside is a level, where you have direct communication with Him, seek that space, in silence, and you will find it, and with it, you will find peace fo mind and the ability to accept all you cannot change.

    *hugs*

    5/5 Ingrid
