Stronger

Strange are these feeling that beseech me
overcome by the aroma of the not yet crisp
applewood bacon   sizzling on the grill
not realizing    I have been burned

Sitting at a table meant for two
my eyes are glued to my book
but my thoughts are only of you
that killer smile and those angel eyes

It has been long  way to long
since I have cooked only for one
a simple tear trails my pallid cheek  and
for a moment I allow myself to be weak

Even though I miss you so    I know
I have to be much stronger

It is not easy getting used to change, and this feeling is well transmitted in these lines of yours, Tim. We usually say that it's wise to move on, but a heavy heart and heavy feet are not always ready to follow what the mind dictates! // paul
