The Ones I Love Written and Edited By Lea Pidgeon

The Ones I Love THIS HURTS I've been run over by a jeep I’ve smashed in the mouth with a bat had a fractured eye socket multiple face fractures whole left side of my face fractured and swollen nose crushed, broken, and broken again BUT THIS HURTS my heart is breaking all my life has been on the roads less travelled I've met hundreds, I dare say thousands of people only a handful I've called friends, kindred souls the ones I love why why why do i lose the ones I love lose them forever I always lose the ones I really love THIS HURT IS TOO PAINFUL run me over, shoot me, shove me off a cliff anything just stop this heart hurt it's gonna break for good someday a heart can only break so many times This poem was inspired by, and is dedicated to Larry Gibb 7/22/51 to 12/13/11 He possessed the National Defense Service Medal as well as the Vietnam Campaign Medal Also dedicated to my sister Renee Keller deceased 1/24/12 And now I’m also dedicating it to my Brother-In-Law Key Standlee deceased 6/19/2013 He was a Navy, Vietnam War Veteran, and retired Corrections Officer, and new proud Grampa I had to open a new account and can't get to my poems unless I Google myself.
