They burn, My eyes. After keeping them open For so long. I’ve watched, Waited, Prayed, And cried Only to add to their pain. Constantly At half-mast, My ship drifts on.

&ldquo;The poet&#039;s job is to put into words those feelings we all have that are so deep, so important, and yet so difficult to name, to tell the truth in such a beautiful way, that people cannot live without it.&rdquo; <br /> ― JaneKenyon
