I miss my granny, and my son, and my life that I had before, but, you know what, it will be okay because whatever it is now, it is better than nothing at all. They say everything happens for a reason and, on that note, "they" are correct. If we had not lost the things and the people that we have lost in our lives, then we wouldn't truly appreciate the things and the people that we have now.
I liked it. There was this raw feeling that was...I'm not sure how to word it. "There's plenty to look forward to in life, even as things end." Maybe even that old saying "Keep on truckin'." [hahaha]
i love the ending to this poem.
you are very creative and talented,
everyone needs to be able to miss things once in a while,
for things worth missing are things worth having.
and it's worth searching for new things to replace some of the old ones that have left.
Ahhh . . . what a beautiful and honest poem. Yes, so much I miss, as well, and yet you portray your feelings in such an artistic manner. So much to miss, my friend, but then again . . . so much to look forward to.
Poetry is the best therapy...I am sure after writing this very well written piece you feel atleast a bit better ;) I can soo relate to this, nice work :)

This poem laments some salad days gone by and then defers to the current you, it is ironic that this is not redemptive irony...a happy ending...it could be, but the author leaves it open towards the yeeccchhh side. A very intriguing write...most people, having grown from their trials become the greater for it, also making this a sad, current "ME"...Well done, captivating, honest, and unusual.
I'm married to an amazing man that also happens to be a writer! My heart belongs with him, our children and our grandchildren, they are all amazing.
This is an "outlet" for me. I am not a w.. more..
