My secret thoughts reveal such pain in my diary I explain how your death truly broke my heart when from this life you did depart. I’ll never see your face again. Bitter tears fall like salty rain each tear stained entry will remain forever to record and chart my secret thoughts. This grief is driving me insane and sadness permeates my brain. You were witty, handsome and smart I won’t move on, make a fresh start. Each diary page will contain My secret thoughts.

Very sad, takes you away. You have a wonderful way of articulating feelings we've all felt but sometimes have trouble putting into words. Wonderful write Jan. Should fair well. Still a big fan..................Pat

I am amazed at how far I have come since I wrote my first poem almost 4 years ago - who would have thought my hubbies cancer would have seen me perform some of my poop on stage in front of over 600 people!:-) hugs jan xx
