Listen to poem:

It's In the Details

it’s in every little thing we did
the micro details throughout the day
the ones no one would understand

these are
the moments
i miss most

i remember my life as
mini minute minuscule instants
each filled with love for you

how now every
microscopic beat
has me longing for you

through warm lingering fog
i’m somehow forging my way
blessed with the memory of you

that is so soulful and beautiful. you brought to tears. Awful to lose your soul mate. Recently I have been faced with a lot of friends and family passing on. I told my ex of thirty five years, still my best friend, that he wasn't allowed to leave before me, after all I am four years older. I'm so glad you are able to write and you truly write so beautifully.

Thank you, Nancy. It's always a good sign to stay friends with ex's. There's so much in common and so much been shared ~
