Let Us Back Into Your Heart

So sad to see you Wilt away Waste away Fade away People throwing lifebuoys And you don’t reach out You don’t try You don’t want You refuse to try As if you hope to end it Once and for all As if you’ve given up On finding something to live for Gave up on your dreams long ago Do you even remember caring So long ago What about the people Who want you In their lives To hear your jokes See you smile See you embrace life again What about Everyone who loves you Let us back into your heart Featured on April 22, 2018 Submitted on August 18, 2017 for contest LET ME INTO YOUR HEART sponsored by JULIE LEIGH RODEHEAVER - RANKED 8TH

I wanted to add this to my favorites, but I already did. It's wonderful in many different ways, Line, it reminds me of my father who passed of Alzheimers.

gosh, there you are again talking about this kind of person who is so sad. Is it a family member? Or just you imagining (I do that all the time, often my poems are not based on my own reality or my own family). I see this placed in a contest last year. Belated congrats. It's a lovely poem. Now I must be going. Since I got Netflix, I just want to watch those shows!!! (my trampoline is conveniently set in front of the BIG SCREEN down in my basement) Bye bye for today!

Thanks for your visit, Andrea. Our lives are full of characters that compel our muse to write, and this is the case. Enjoy your evening. Till next time.
