Just catching up on some reading, this poem breaks my heart, I would love to discuss this with you.

Never can get sick of confessional poetry :)

Cheers

simple but i really like it.

confused, so what does it mean when you say that you do fill me with love etc refering to god? and later miss the promise of holding you...etc refering to man? forgiveness? for sins? m... interesting though

Short but powerful. I think I would have liked to have seen some punctuation to help make your point, bring in more emphasis!

'but I still

miss the promise

of holding you and those things

forever'

I love those lines.. pure longing. I know the feeling. I close my eyes and it pulls at my heart.

:-) I don't have time to read as much as I used to, but I try! Thank you as well for the feedback. I enjoy getting it.

Take care,
