The day before yesterday, I pictured you
When fear knocked upon my door and my heart was a heavy weight upon the floor
I pictured you, my love
With deep brown eyes made of dirt
Of life enrichment
You never failed to chase the fear away and ground me upon this Earth
Today, I cannot picture you
As you leaving brought me pain
So whenever you cross my mind, my love
I must turn my face away.

Thank you Clara for this sensorial, grounded Lament in every sense your words evoke. It speaks to me of tension between strength and vulnerability.
at the end of love, it is often easier to turn away and I think you have done an exemplary fine job of articulating this sad but true phenomenon ...
Very emotive write, it i so sad when love fails. It will come back to you though.

A fine write Clara. Oohh, I will come back pronto then! Sorry I ever went away. Dunno what made me do it! heehee.
Simple but powerful. Enjoyed this
