TELL ME PLEASE -POTD

Is it you 
Who sits beside me when l am sitting on my bed alone

Are you the slight breeze l feel 
When the source is unbeknown

Are you the movement so close beside me
When l turn and l am on my own

Is it you…

The longing, wishing it were so, it is palatable. A dramatic, brevity write that works. I see you received POTD, belated congratulations. It is me ... CayCay

Even when we are alone, sometimes we feel the comforting presence of someone we love dearly. Can we call it hallucination, I wonder. Dear Deb, Congratulations on your POTD

Dear Deb, Congrats on POTD showing that when we love or miss someone, our minds stay tuned to their frequency. Grief, memory, and longing have a way of inhabiting our quietest spaces, a subtle shift in the air, a sudden coolness, a perceived weight on the edge of the bed. I love how you capture how the heart instinctively reaches outward to bridge the gap between physical isolation and emotional closeness. Beautiful and evocative work, Deb. Blessings, Daniel
