Poem -
On My River Walk
Going on my river walk
far away to the city of plenty
I'll try to look brave, indifferent
missing you so much, already
I'm nervously glancing at my telephone
feeling so alone, but not lonely;
and I thought I was ready for this
suddenly getting apprehensive
and why haven't you still not driven away?
though it makes me sad to know you're still looking
You knew this would happen one day
so please try to be strong, I promise
I won't stay away from you for too long

An interesting write Chris. Sounds to me like a long distance relationship that has gone on too long and your amazed at the interest she still has. I've never been in a long distance relationship don't think im equipped to handle that, but I really like the idea to this or the idea that spoke to me....I felt like there's always hope. Talk to ya brother.
wow Devon, that is an interesting comment, you saw that eh? Fascinating. The poem is really about how I felt dropping my daughter off to university far away, I tried to use her point of view using my 'empath' gift, lol, it was far too emotional for me to come up with words to express how I really felt so I 'guessed' how she was feeling....I'm glad you commented on this one, it is a rare naked poem (just how I feel) for me....cheers man
Chris,
one of the hardest things I ever had to do was let my little girl go off to a different state for college. I miss her so much and I know she is only a phone call away but I just want her closer so I can protect her from all the badness out there. You see she had cancer and she lost her hand to it. She is the strongest person I know. She is far braver than I. great write love it. I get teary reading it over in the light of your comment to Devon.
Thank you for that comment, PD, it helps me a lot, I'm glad I gave the intent of the poem to Devon. It's an odd subject to write on, but I had a difficult time writing help me process things better. Wow, you comment is really moving, thanks for sharing that, have great evening poet
