Yes! I agree, let’s make sure those we love know how much we treasure them, while there is time.

Admittedly I struggled to read this through. The emotion is so incredibly palpable here, each word a pang of familiar grief.

If this is a personal loss for you – condolences , myfriend.

Heartbreaking…

A thought shared by all for someone. 🌼

Powerfully penned, Brenda. A mother’s love is unconditional my friend. Truly am sorry for your loss. Appreciate you.

This is a clever write. After reading your work, I’m sure you could bluff a demon.
I enjoyed this, Damian.

Nice work my friend.

If you can be stoïc enough to successfully embody that poker face……maybe you are the demon…😉

Thanks so much for reading and your kind words, Mary. So glad you connected with the write my friend. I’m kinda hoping I remember how, in case I run into that demon again. lol. Appreciate you.

Damian

Sparkling beautiful, my friend.

You wouldn’t be knowing anyone like that would you? Enjoyed this my friend, always clever with your words 🌼

wrote this poem about me shes a wonderful, beautiful,and talented one of a kind woman

“a lovely hellion of sorts don’t mess with her” love that line.

Beautifully penned, Brenda. This is a lovely write my friend. Appreciate you.

Damian

Outstanding. Your words captivate Brenda. Marvelous!!

Superb

Love your spacing… very effective emphasis. Second person narrative is such a powerful literary POV, and you’ve taken full advantage. The conversational tone reflects the overwhelming effort to maintain control. The piece is as much about self as it is situational management, and I think the limited information provided makes it all the more relatable.

Thank you, Wil;))l

Powerfully penned, Fia. There is venom in those words my friend. Incredible write. Appreciate you.

Damian

Heavy! Like this a lot.

This is incredibly raw and honest. The way you describe the tears as rage, not sorrow, feels so real. Thank you for sharing this.
