Feelings hanging out all over, <br /> there for everyone and anyone to see, <br /> - - - one heart all over both sleeves. <br /> <br /> Last night - First night together, <br /> then two sleepless nights apart, <br /> - - - boggled mind so anxious, <br /> I had to write it, because... <br /> I never could have spoken that! <br /> <br /> So much for the ' been there - <br /> - done that, crap ' - - - <br /> Reaching for a tiny hand, <br /> a clumsey klutz, who is almost ill, <br /> ... then she held my paw... <br /> very happy... SO VERY... very happy! <br /> ... but cool! <br /> <br /> I am pretty sure that I will sleep again ... <br /> but, I can't say just when ... <br /> Topsey - Turvey me, <br /> - - - I am not who I used to be, <br /> although the mirror looks the same! <br /> <br /> It is so good to know, <br /> that I am not the only one that won't let go, <br /> and maybe, not the only 'basket case ', <br /> these last few days!<br /><br />Barry Van Allen<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/last-few-days/
