Your eyes twinkle like stars,
But are as distant as mars.
I yearn to feel your breath again,
But all I can do is pretend.
Never to think to see you Gone,
But all I can do is long.
Tears are shed when I think,
But forgetting makes me sink.
I hate myself when I smile,
Haven't been happy in a while.
What does it mean?
Am I even seen?
A pebble in the ocean,
Filled with emotion.
I don’t see you.
I don’t see you.
Am I even near you?

Renewed Promise
"When my best friend got married, he walked down the aisle to a song about death - a poignant reminder that marriage is a promise to stand together until the end. I, too, have come to realize that my wedding vows were too focused on the joy and laughter, neglecting the complexities of life. I wish I had said: 'I take you, with all the uncertainties and challenges that come with being alive. I promise to stand by you as we navigate the trials of family history, health issues, and the mundane routines of life. I vow to support you through the darkest moments, just as we celebrate the brightest ones.'

When We Were Very Young
In another box set that my parents got me when I was younger contained four books by A.A. Milne. 'When We Were Very Young' is a collection of poems that Milne wrote for his son Christopher Robin. This is a book that is full of references to Mr. Edward Bear, but a lot of the poems give some various descriptions of life of a very young child and where, when, how and why they do what they do. The illustrations are quite cute for you can see what Christopher Robin is and may be thinking. Also, Pooh Bear does make his self-known at various points. I have read these verses many, many times over the years and each time make me feel good about myself.
