Commiserations

vacuum of soul mate’s bereavement falling into a bottomless abyss cannot be instantly healed by a mere platonic kiss helpless yet rebellious the wounded heart bleeds yet tender touch of a friend pained soul at such time needs love, spontaneous and uninhibited plunges headlong into embrace there is in it no calculation and of ego no trace

Such a compassionate piece US, I know from first hand experience that many shy away from actually mentioning the deceased one for fear of upsetting those left behind, a hug, a kind word really can make all the difference:-) hugs Jan xx
