And here I sit, In tears yet again Wishing I could let it all out Emotions ready to spill In salt laden streams While in my head I shout Old wounds are opened And new ones are made Each time I mull over the past Strong is my will As I duck tape the cracks Not knowing how long it will last When there is no other fix The dam will burst forth And a river of tears I will cry My soul misses that touch Of soft fingers and lips Never felt but for in the minds eye There is really no end To the yearning I feel So I'll accept what I must face In my dream you will stay Till fate brings you to me To rest in my loving embrace

Wow, Beth - I feel the torment and longing in this verse. Nicely written. Just as an aside - it is "duct" tape. I hope you don't mind the suggestion. Thanks for sharing and good luck with your poetry. Joe
