When I woke

I knew it was permanent,
when I woke.
we had seen our last
of each other.

How desperately,
I have missed you.
I long for
Friend and brother.

Such heartfelt wishes for the one lost. We break worldly ties but we cannot break the spiritual bonds, hard as we may try. A poem that's small yet so big on the message.

Thank you Divya, I hope your well

[Mauricio Montoya]

so was the first line a dream , awoke to what you see, love or hate, you decide to compromise that love between them and I. excellent write.

Thank you for reading, I'm not sure where some of my writing comes from, I think even tho I end with friend and brother, it's about my son. Poetic license. . .I guess. .

I love the idea that you put in the first lines of waking up and realizing that something is permanent, final, so sad, and the yearning that remains. Such a short poem, and such powerful feelings.
