I find the best poems are ones that leave us in a state of thought.. from being vivd, confronting or from being able to relate.. this one i can. Reminds me of my papa.. the last time i saw him.. he was lifeless, his mind elsewhere.. his will to live was gone.. he wanted to die.. and remember in my childish ways i had a feeling he wanted to die because he had a broken heart.. that last image and subconscious feeling hasn't changed... Remarkable poem, take care, Mel xx
