At First

She gave me the love of the virgin Mary. A love for her that will not tarry P.D. is a creature that I dare to claim Poet Destroyer a bold clever name I met her on the soup before I knew Her fame She hated me at first but one day she saw my pain She reached to me forgiving arms And gave to me her forgiving charms An act of which I'll never forget True forgiveness one rarely gets I shared my feelings with the world And they were noticed by a girl The pain of my misery reached her heart She set aside the differences that tore us apart I write this poem as a monument in my heart It's a dedication and not just art She touched my life in that certain way And her memory will always stay I may not think of her everyday But there are those moments that will never fade away But when she forgave my heart that day That's when she moved in and there she will stay

Situation, I am very touched by the poem. I remember that day, as if it was yesterday. Everything flew away, and existed no longer, once you felt I hurt too:-( I know we don't talk or communicate as much. But, you will always be in my heart, and in my thoughts. I smile every time I see you on the soup. This silent friendship has been the best ever... I was very sad when I heard about your father's passing then shortly April's passing, ((despite our differences)) I will always reach out to you. I care about you. I never expected to feel your pain from so far away. Thank you very much for the dedication. Maybe one day I will share the pain too. But, for right now I have to move on and store it all away. always~ LINDA
