A Similar Style

Who is there at the end of the day, when you are finally able to breathe? When it is finally time to unload and put away, The weight of the day that you are underneath. Is there someone there who greets you, With warmth in their eyes and a smile? Who shares this time and place, as you do. And you both have a similar style. To have that person know and understand. The very heart and soul of you. They can add to that and expand. Your perspective and points of view. We need someone to share the good, the bad. Who we can lean on when we aren't as strong. One who knows the reality of being sad. And won't tell you that your feelings are wrong. If you are fortunate to have this someone there. Appreciate them and what they mean to you. There are those of us with no one to care. It is a precious gift, that you do.

Your poignant poem is so resonant. I have too many friends in the situation you describe. They tell me on the phone that they're fine, but the resignation in their voices is unmistakable. Touching write, Sandra. Hang in there, Gershon
