Lingering

Hurt
Judgment
Not knowing
The full story
Treated unfairly
Without reason
Lingering
Around
Still

Truth shot straight to the heart, Heidi. Your poetic dexterity on the various forms is really amazing. This sums up your point of view (POV) very well. Mighty fine poetry. Love and joy always.

This is a wonderful write about your current situation Heidi! I know that you are struggling with being treated unfairly, and that you aren't getting the fair shake! I'm sorry about your situation my friend! If there is any thing I can do to help just let me know! What a fabulous poem you have written here my friend! You have surely delighted me by your incredible skill with this ninette, a fun form to do, but not necessarily an easy one! Great Work!!
