Lovely write. Touched my heart to the core.Life is not always a bed of roses.The ugly side sometimes lifts its head up.Its up to us to brave the ordeal and survive. Beautifully captured the emotion and I could literally feel the pain.Thank you
A very moving and touching poem! well done and well deserved poem of the day!
Wonderful poem. Nobody could have expressed this any better than you have done. Congratulations on having it selected as poem of the day.
Very moving and empathetic. I have nursed women who expressed these exact feelings.
Incredibly sad poetry, absolutely heart breaking. Pity we live in a physical world, more-so our pretense that the heart is not the center of that physicality..... it most certainly is. I don't know why God separated our souls in the manner he did, with the most long held belief that man/woman constitute a single soul. But it must have something to do with gaining sensitivity to others, or abhorring the idea that love would fade due to something as physical as a removed breast. Even more powerful than that is the underlying notion that a woman, any woman, would need to feel ashamed of such.... Your poem is beautiful, and what I'm about to say is no reflection on that. You penned this in the exact perfect way. But there are simply no words in any language that can come close to describing the absolute beauty of a woman's soul - or her delicate thoughts arising as a need to balance what she is - the expanse of herself - and this physical life she is trapped within. That's the thing, and that is what I see in your most apt poem here...... Very well done poet....
John, it sometimes scares me that you and I think so much alike. Almost every time I go to make a comment, I have to refrain from making it because you have already made it! My wife and I will be traveling the next few days and I may not be able to get access to a computer, so you are going to have to make comments for both of us!
Wonderful poem beautifully written Shawn congratulations on poem of the day well deserved
I can feel the excruciating pain expressed in this poem and I can understand how bad it must feel. Thanks for sharing, Shawn, and all I can say is that yes, It is great to be alive at least. Lumps or no lump, it hardly matters.
A wonderful poem, Shawn. Thank you for sharing it with us. Peace.
