  • "I believe this post is highly relate-able on many different levels. I would assume this is about a lost love, but it could be about any number of things. Well written, sad and entirely honest. "

  • "Thanks for the kind words everyone. It's good to feel the support. I have kept my poems pretty hidden throughout my life. And yes, the numbers are accurate descriptions of the distance from where my wife and I were driving from one night, the distance from my door to the chair, etc. but they are also in reference to beta wave thresholds as it relates to awareness states. Also beta comes from ancient alphabets that pronounced "b" as "Beth", my wife's name."

  • "Wonderfully written. I get the metaphore here, but I'm curious, do the numbers have any significance?"

  • "Sounds like you definitely need some YOU time, without feeling guilty. As Clint Eastwood said "A man has got to know his limitations" - so learn how to say "NO" You will figure things out, eventually. Thanks for sharing this trapped-in-life and personal piece so welll expressed. We learn from our mistakes."

  • "A lot can happen in five years while the world keeps spinning. So who changed the most, to widen that gulf between you? Possibly your drowning? (in something or somebody) Thanks for this thoughtful piece."

  • "Very thoughtful and indeed insightful. The proverbial straw that broke the camels back most likely. One unguarded moment, one night of bliss, a lifetime of regrets - or "what ifs?""

  • "Acceptance comes with maturity - just make sure that it is acceptable to you too. Don't resign yourself to "fate" as some would call it - when it is really an excuse for laziness. Thoughtful poem well written, thanks."

  • "When it comes down to it, thats all anybody ever wants....to be safe. To make the ones you love safe, and be able to keep them safe, even if it means sacrificing yourself. This was beautifully written. Greatly expressed. Brava!!"

  • "The repetition drives home the feelings of hopelessness, the futility is palpable. I guess all one can really do is wait, and hope the outcome is a welcome one. Write onward."
