The last 12 months have been the hardest of my life. The lightening quick ending of a 26 year marriage, partnership and friendship. The loss of my best friend of 30 years and the loss of other close friends. I am a poet and writer. Writing helps me move through both the joys and the fears and the pain with swifter and more useful degrees of grace and wisdom. Right now life is challenging, so the poetry reflects that. FYI Be in joy, in all ways! ~william

Drifting

I feel like my life is shutting down. Drifting alone. Shut out and shut off. Tired of watching the passing of close friends; am I next? Tired of being befriended only to be taken from. of watching friends being cruel to other friends. I choose a simple life and am hated for it. I ache. Body and soul.
