I Miss You (Especially) Today
Feb 12
4
Sitting here, across the ocean
somewhat out of sync with another time and place-
it seems so strange that my heart
should swell for the wind on the tide.
But there are moments when I am here at this desk
or standing on a corner
any corner
sitting in a theatre
laughing with a beer in one hand, and suddenly
my heart is far away.
You can keep it for a while.
i just let the tears fall,,,,,,,not even wiping them away.
ps. i’m so vain……

Comment by Jen — 13 February 2010 @ 9:55 amhhhhhhhmmmmmmmmmmmm cheesecake!! Is it better to have to replace the contents of the plastic bag or never to have had anything to put in the bag to begin with??
Comment by Donna — 13 February 2010 @ 10:31 amAlthough I don’t live across a pond, I live far enough away from “home” that I can totally relate with this post – and it was so beautifully written.
