My Breath Is Taken

My breath is taken. 
No choice,
Just taken. 
Ecstatic pain
Thrills through me,
And I know 
You are right for me. 
This glove fits so well;
WE fit so well. 
They laugh at our antics,
That gallery of stern critics. 
Foolishly juxtaposed!
Enemies of Bliss!
The last laugh
Is ours.

Poet Destroyer A Date: 2/6/2016 2:41:00 AM Allen, I was talking about your friend, who inspired the poem for Brittany Maynard (Never mind me, I am so glad, you wrote a new poem. As a matter of fact I was going to bug you in writing a new one.) Why actually replied to my comment. :) By the way, that contest is a nice choice. Have you read my take on it. Please do. It might be long, but it's very entertaining. I promise. LINDA Login to Reply

Poet Destroyer A Date: 2/6/2016 1:49:00 AM You know, Allen, I saw that you had not posted a poem since the ends of 2014, that is why I read your dedication to your friend from facebook. Call me the biggest snoop around here. LOL.. Anyways, here I am enjoying another free verse by you. Greatly penned, for we shall have the last laugh.. Deeply said.

It's funny that all it took was a comment from you, and within minutes, i'd entered a competition. I truly thank you for your encouragement ??
