Out Of Balance Poem by Barbara Haskell

All this time,
I've just been going through the motions,
treading water,
just to stay afloat.
Without you,
I can't find the laughter,
life is out of balance
and I can barely cope.
Searching to find you again,
that's all I could do,
as long as you were out there,
I still had hope.
I have always loved you,
always will, my Jack.
I need you,
need to be together,
I want you, please,
tell me you want me back.
