Notice of absence from dave donovan
i can sometimes be very lazy, dont worry, i will eventually get back to you. i am very busy, almost all the time...
i can sometimes be very lazy, dont worry, i will eventually get back to you. i am very busy, almost all the time...
This mask I wear to hide my pain,
cannot bring me love again.
If I had ever been aware
of the disasters that brought despair,
I’d have finished the day with baited breath,
awaiting the finality of death.
Nothing in my life adored,
can save me from deaths final sword.
But, if Hope can bring life again.
Then hope, my heart will retain.
But short lived if not fanned high,
For the word has no meaning
If not held high.
For short, my mind bereft,
I stand here taking every breath.
I am nothing if not a gentleman,
Yet I am alone, and stand without
the heartache of a love forlorn.
D.p.d. 2018

- Comment from author about the poem: I feel this right now, because it is Father’s Day, and I made a lot of mistakes. I have done all I can to correct them, but still can’t erase them from my life.

You are all heart, that's a wonderful thing. Stay strong for those with hearts are always vulnerable in a toxic world mainly peopled by the heartless. Your poems speaks truth from the heart to the heart.
Thank you. A moment of weakness.
