intensity’s searching glare
in stains of what went wrong
folds of love lift its mended heart
burning embers of roses’ rue
climb in moonlight fulfillment
as words across a page

How insightfully poetic...I feel like I understand the situation you're narrating oh-so-damn-well!!

Reading this is fulfilling my quota for
awesome-poems...You are the epitome of an amazing poet...
Good luck (though I expect you won't need a bucket-load of it.

Thanks so much for such a thoughtful and complementary comment... writing poetry is a continual learning process, and although I feel I'm just beginning, I'm pretty attached to it. I may hit one on the head at times, but I have others that miss by a mile! Beside, it keeps me off the streets!
FYI - I learn by reading your poetry too, Jessica.
