Me, now…
I have had to deal with tragedy
and have distanced myself
from many people
I know care for me
But I cannot give them support
for something I am breaking apart from
So I hope you all know
That I want you back
I miss you
I need to cry on your shoulder
I need to have your company
And I will try
to reach out
to show how much
you are needed.

Christine, at some level, you know how much you can bear right now. I’m hoping your loved ones understand why you are distant right now. If only you could get this poem to them…

Thank you…I hope sometimes that my friends actually read my blog. Many of them do because I have my posts here go right to Facebook, even though I can’t stand Facebook!

Sometimes when you have broken the bonds, it’s so hard to mend them again…

Tragedy broke the bonds…I am still mourning so it is hard to reach out to people when I am hurting still

There are ebbs and flows of distance and closeness. Relationships are hard but the true ones will endure, no matter how the tragedy affects them.
