All about you, I’d like to know
the things that make you smile
the ‘car crash’ that still hurts you
the love you lost, still feel.
All lives have wounds and splinters
not all have you as I do, or me
as you, to heal, to mend, to restore
faith in, in being, giving, feeling.
Open a door to your inner self
without fear of slamming in your
face so perfect, even with a tear
shed knowing not knowing you.
This is so beautiful and emotional. Wow.

Thank you so much, Lucy and sorry for my late response – for some reason I had to approve your comment and of course me being me I thought I had… and hadn’t – heading for a bad sentence, having to read what it is I write – no comment, I just have?

Thank you, Basilike, that means a lot – it’s that ‘Sam’ again – his messages become verse.

I’m tempted to let him take over – do ‘Their Story’ as his verse.

Actually it made me cry a little…
in a good way.
It made me feel emotional to read such kind, compassionate and caring words. Perhaps there’s hope for me after all 🖤🖤

I’m glad it was in a good way, I like to think there is… and please tell me why on the news the folk of Scotland are wearing coats – we’re melting where I am!

A coat is a year round garment up here! Don’t think I’ve ever left home without one! 😂
It does look pretty warm down there though – hope you’re managing to cope with it! 😎🖤
