She is no longer Part of my life I’ve moved on My life is full With friends
How do you measure pain? All is relative and personal Even with one’s own self It is impossible to compare As memory distorts pain

We Are me and you Together Two hearts Two minds
Bags full of diapers Cars waiting in line Smell coming from the load Ashamed it was mine He noticed my insulin pump
Nothing makes people flee Like reading them poetry They value it in theory But please don’t make them read Surprise me with your verse

Water Beach pools and fountains Rivers creeks and waterfalls The sound The feel Floating Weightless
If I could make you smile Just once Sincerity From an appreciative heart It would make all of it worthwhile
Ask any female Love Is in the details I love you Three greatest words
