As my father reminded me after a particularly difficult breakup: We always prize our losses above our acquisitions. Strangely helpful for me back then; I hope it can be for you, if this is autobiography.
Oh, we do, indeed. And we need reminders just like what your dad said to keep us on track. Thank you, although this one’s purely a product of my imagination. I might nees this in the future. 🙂
Your poetry is beautiful. And yes, as Josh said, ” a poem does not have to be long to be powerful.” Those strong and still vulnerable lines speak of eternity and split seconds; of divine and human nature. I could read them for hours and still not grasp their profound meaning. I could also stare at them for a split second and immediately breath their wisdom. Those simple lines contain the universe and beyond.
A Haiku of eternal beauty and wisdom.
