I Lost a Poem

The hardest words to conceive The hardest words to birth The hardest words to forget The hardest words to let go... The hearts in the words The muscles in the words The future in the words All gone due to a tiny error Even trying to create those words again Is very difficult It's never the same The feel is different Goodbye sweet stong soul.....

So sorry for your lost poem. I feel your anguish. I have experienced similar writing anguish when I am posting a private message, etc., only to have an ad take me away from my page. Then to get back, I click on a wrong area and find I have lost my entire message and I have to start over. Very frustrating and time consuming. Blessings, Darlene
