Love
love is a scar,
a mark
upon my heart
and proudly
you left it there
without words
I have honored your peace
with me
and happily I left it there
since then
since love was there
how come we lost it
in each day when
you are not looking
at me? you seem have
to left it like that
I don’t know why
my love
you left me there
with my own shadow alone
holding hands all alone
I am tasting my tears
instead of your sweet kisses
those tears I wear them
proudly
on my face
sinking into you
like a dream
and sadly, I left it like that.....

I was inspired by a song called Droplets by Colbie calliat and Jason Reeves.

very, very nice!
loved it.
Thank you for your B/day wishes to me.
Kind words can be short and easy to speak, but their echoes are truly endless. xxx.
Last week, while traveling to Toronto on business, I noticed an army sergeant traveling with a folded flag, but did not put two and two together.
After we boarded our flight, I turned to the sergeant, who'd been invited to sit in First Class ( across from me), and inquired if he was heading home.
'No', he responded.
'Heading out', I asked?
'No. I'm escorting a soldier home.'
'Going to pick him up?'
'No. He is with me right now. He was killed in Afganistan, I'm taking him home to his family.'
The realization of what he had been asked to do hit me like a punch to the gut. It was an honor for him. He told me that, although he didn't know the soldier, he had delivered the news of his passing to the soldier's family and felt as if he knew them after many conversations in so few days.
I turned back to him, extended my hand, and said, 'Thank you. Thank you for doing what you do so my family and I can do what we do.'
