Excuse the Drama

Sandra, a well constructed, well written poem. Sad, but with a little hope at the end. You know, when you are at the bottom, the only remaining way is up!

The agony of not knowing you write with honesty Sandra - -love can leap over miles - I love the final three lines of real poignancy.

How can I ever understand somebody else if I don\'t even understand myself? Like the Seuss and Thoreau comparison! Well written, Sandra!

Ah well, Sandra, I figured I might as well read all three of your poems.

Again, like the two others, I do like this poem because it is so well written. You wrote about being blind and deaf, so let me conclude with a quote by Helen Keller:

Once I knew only darkness and stillness... my life was without past or future... but a little word from the fingers of another fell into my hand that clutched at emptiness, and my heart leaped to the rapture of living.
Helen Keller

I Know

Sandra, after reading \'Heartache\' I checked your page and found this older poem.
I do like your straight forward, kind of minimalist style of writing. You have that rare capability to express a lot with only a few words. Kudos!

Heartache Has a Name

Sandra, I do like your poem. Even though it is sad, it is so well written, expressing the whole gamut of emotions created by a broken love in just a few short sentences.
And btw, since I live on an island, I think I do have a few life rings around somewhere, could try to throw you one! :-)

Excellent descriptions, I love how direct this piece is, a sense of acceptance. Much enjoyed.
