wrong post, wrong place, sorry Joe

I absolutely love the last stanza! I think it's brilliant :)

Hello old friend. I too liked the last stanza it speaks volumes. Yes it is so true that no man can understand the depths of another s grief or pain

eloquently stated.

What I just said sounds cold.

What the poem says is profoundly distressing, as it should be.

but you might need to coin new word!.

This title doesn't work well for me :-/

I wish (btw)... I would lable it something like "Dancing in the Dark"
Great closing lines.

i see it and know loss. i simply love it

I had to see what you've been writing before I sneak off to bed

that last Stanza is outstanding and the whole poem is well written
you have a talent for touching emotions some of us are still striving to emote

loved this Joe

your Jayne with much love xxxx

after Jason's death I awoke this morning from a dream where I had brought him back to life by surrendering my own and the grief was as strong as when he died.

Thank you Joe, this poem retains it's power in making me feel less alone in the loneliest of places.
