now and then I think of you
as I sit here looking at the empty chair across the kitchen table
now and then I miss you
the absence of you preparing the oatmeal as only you were able
the ready smile upon your lips
what happened to the promise of tomorrow
what happened to the hope unfulfilled
leaping out of my heart as the whispered dish of sorrow
the sun rises each morning
orange red blood like drops of glory
yet I sit here paralyzed in thought
dying like the stagnant pond of algae

Oui, vous avez tellement raison … La question demeure, est-il jamais l’amour? Comme le dit Mme Patmore sur DOWNTON ABBEY, “Parfois, vous pouvez passer trop de temps sur un amour à sens unique.”

Oui il est important que l’amour soit partagé, dans le cas contraire, il est préférable de partir voir ailleurs 🙂

Oui…L’amour rend aveugle …il semble que l’on peut penser le coeur est reçu … comment est-ce arrivé? Je ne sais pas comment quelqu’un peut sourire et apparemment être présents, et dans le même temps, être ailleurs…et la planification de leur départ.

Ceux qui font cela sont des lâches, ils agissent comme des traites. Il ne faut pas les regretter.
Those who do this are cowards, they act as drafts. We should not regret them.
Kisses my dear friend 🙂
