This really touched my heart. I can feel the mellow tone of your voice in this poem, and I think that's what I love most about it.

This stanza contains so much emotion... it's incredible. That's what I look for when I read poems. Fantastic job! Keep it up.
I know, and recognize the pain you have scripted here, so well. I again, invite you in, to read one of my poems, Once Tossed, The Ripple Caused, that perhaps, bleeds from the same vein..I will venture further into your catalogue....anticipating fine works. PEACE
