The truth of the matter is . . .: June 2024

We can make it work. But only if we do it together.

The outcome is worth the effort, as we blend . . .

Two Hearts

It’s neither you

nor me.

It doesn’t

have to be.

We vowed

to live life honestly.

To share our feelings

without regret.

To cherish the memories

of the day we met.

To find our way together,

let’s not forget.

We may trip and fall

along the way,

And wish

for a brighter day—

A day of promise,

one without dismay.

Holding hands,

like a precious glove,

The brightness

of the sky above—

A sign

of our shared love.

You made growing up easy. I could share my feelings and thoughts with you.

But then you disappeared from my life. I have only one request, . . .

Let’s Talk

You avoid me like the plague

and I don’t know why.

I thought we were lifelong friends,

until the day we die.

My heart is heavy—

saddled with grief.

I don’t know what happened

and live each day in disbelief.

You don’t answer my emails

or respond to a call.

I feel like I’ve climbed a mountain,

only to fall—

Fall into the depths

of the ocean below.

Struggling to survive,

I have nothing to show.

My efforts have left me

with little hope.

Each day it becomes

harder and harder to cope.

So I bury my head in the pillow

on my bed,

And pray things may change,

before I join the dead.

A true friend can be hard to find. But then it happens.

The two become close, and develop . . .

A Forever Bond

People climb mountains to achieve their dreams,

And dogs follow them with love, so it seems.

But people stumble and fall on their way,

However, dogs continue to do as they say.

Bridges they cross over rivers deep,

As dogs accompany them without uttering a peep.

As years pass, they touch each other’s heart,

Knowing nothing will ever pull them apart.

The bond grows stronger between the two,

Each believing in the other makes dreams come true.
